Below is the production possibilities table for consumer goods (maize) and capital goods (tractors):Type of productionProduction possibilities A B C D Emaize 30 27 21 12 0Tractors 0 2 4 6 8i. Show these data graphically. ii. If the economy is at point C, what is the cost of one more unit of maize? iii. Suppose improvement occurs in the technology of producing tractors but not in the technology of producing maize. Draw the new production possibilities curve. iv. Now assume that a technological advance occurs in producing maize but not in producing tractors. Draw the new production possibilities curve. v. Now draw a production possibilities curve that reflects technological improvement in the production of both goods.
1.Use the marginal analysis technique to determine the quantity of organic coconut oil that will maximize net benefits. Present results in table form and highlight the maximizinglevel. 2. Graphically illustrate letter B. Separate the graphs for TB – TC approach, MB = MC rule, and net benefit (maximum). The sequence of the graph: (1) TB – TC approach (topmost graph); (2) net benefit (middle graph); and (3) MB, MC, & MNB (last, 3rd graph). But be sure that the graphs are parallel in X-axis so as to be consistent in the results. (Label your graphs accordingly and appropriately.)

Two important industries on the island of Bermuda are fishing and tourism.According to data from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nationsand the Bermuda Department of Statistics, in 2009 the 306 registered fishermen inBermuda caught 387 metric tons of marine fish. And the 2,719 people employed byhotels produced 554,400 hotel stays (measured by the number of visitor arrivals).Suppose that this production point is efficient in production. Assume also that theopportunity cost of 1 additional metric ton of fish is 2,000 hotel stays and that thisopportunity cost is constant (the opportunity cost does not change).a. If all 306 registered fishermen were to be employed by hotels (in addition to the2,719 people already working in hotels), how many hotel stays could Bermudaproduce?
