Solved in 2 steps
- 01. What is the opportunity cost of Y for PPF 1? a) ½ of X b) 2 of X c) 1/3 of X d) 3 of X e) 4/5 of Xa) What will the value of the PPF/PPC be in a two factor model with L=Labor along the horizontal axis, and K=Capital along the vertical axis? Explain b) Look at a country’s Terms of Trade (T.O.T.). It is assumed that when the T.O.T. value increases the country’s wellbeing goes up, and when the T.O.T. value declines, the country’s wellbeing is reduced. Explain.Suppose a new hormone is discovered that increases the productivity of the workers in producing beef, but does not affect the production of cabbage.How will that development change the production possibility frontier? Select one: • a. A bulge outwards of the middle while the axis interceptions remain the same. • b. No effect on the PPF. • c. A pivot outwards along the cabbage axis. • d. An even shift outwards from the origin. • e. A pivot outwards along the beef axis.
- Draw a production possibilities frontier (PPF) for oil and food, where food production (Qf) is in the vertical axis and oil production (Qo) is in the horizontal axis. Draw an initial production point on the PPF where the slope of the PPF equals minus the relative price of oil. Label this point 1. If the price of oil on world markets rises sharply due to political reasons, determine the change in production; label the new point on the PPF with a 2. How does this change in the price of oil affect the income distribution in the oil producing countries, assuming there are capital owners and workers involved in the production process?1. What are the opportunity costs of X and Y for PPF 1?Determine whether each statement is true, false, or uncertain and explain why. i. The resources at the disposal of Mrs. Do Good can allow her produce at the points on her productions possibilities frontier. It can therefore be said that points inside the PPF are attainable and efficient and while points outside her PPF are inefficient and unattainable. ii. “An inferior good will always be inferior throughout the full range of incomes experienced by consumers.” iii. The “wants” of an individual can be equated to his/her “needs” in absolute sense. 2. Consider the following model for the toothbrush market in Girne. Suppose the aggregate demand for brushes in Girne is given by ( ⁄ ) where P denotes the price and Q denotes the quantity of brushes in terms of thousands of brushes demanded. The aggregate Supply for brushes in Girne is given by . a. Compute the toothbrush market equilibrium. What are the equilibrium price and quantity? b. Now suppose a tax of t = 60TL is imposed on each…
- The opportunity cost of moving from point H to point G in the above picture is (specify amount and good, ie: 5009 guns)Q3. Home has 1,200 units of labor available. It can produce two goods, apples and bananas. The unit labor requirement in apple production is 3, while in banana production it is 2. a. Draw Home's production possibility frontier. Label the curve PPF. (Clearly show the maximum amount of the two goods that can be produced on your graph) b. What is the opportunity cost of apples in terms of bananas? (Enter your response rounded to one decimal place.) c. In the absence of trade, what would the price of apples in terms of bananas be? There is now also another country, Foreign, with a labor force (L) of 800. Foreign's unit labor requirement in apple production is 5, while in banana production it is 1. d. Derive the equation for Foreign's production possibility frontier. e. Graph Foreign’s production possibility frontier.A. What is the opportunity cost to produce the first 10 Saturn Rings? B. What is the opportunity cost to produce the last 10 Saturn Rings? C. Given your answer, is there increasing or constant opportunity costs in the production of Saturn Rings? D. When this production possibilities frontier is graphed, will it be a straight line or a curved one?
- Draw a production possibilities frontier (PPF) with missiles on the horizontal axis and butter on the vertical axis, illustrating these options, showing points A – F. Option missiles butter A 0 30 B 1 28 C 2 24 D 3 18 E 4 10 F 5 0 Can this country produce 24 units of butter and 4 missiles? Explain. Where would this point lie on the PPF? What is the trade-off when moving from point A to B? What is the opportunity cost of increasing missile production from 3-4 units? what is the opportunity cost of increasing butter production from 18-24 units? What is the maximum amount of butter that can be produced, if all resources are devoted to butter production? Can this country produce 2 missiles and 10 units of butter? Yes or no? Where would this point lie relative…Why is the Production Possibility Curve (PPC) or Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) concave? What does increasing opportunity costs mean? When we increase production, why does it seem that we have to sacrifice more and more resources?Consider two countries, Korea and Malaysia, and two goods, lumber and automobiles. Korea’s PPF is biased towards automobiles, and Malaysia’s PPF is biased towards lumber. They have the normal, concave to origin, increasing opportunity cost shape.1. Draw the PPFs of both countries with lumber on the horizontal axis.2. Illustrate the autarky equilibria in both countries given our strong assumption about preferences (e.g. consumption in both countries always lies on the same line from the origin).
