Suppose Jacques is currently using combination D, producing one boat per day. His opportunity cost of producing a second boat per day is per day. Now, suppose Jacques is currently using combination C, producing two boats per day. His opportunity cost of producing a third boat per day is per day. From the previous analysis, you can determine that as Jacques increases his production of boats, his opportunity cost of producing one more boat Suppose Jacques buys a new tool that enables him to produce twice as many boats per hour as before, but it doesn't affect his ability to produce balls. Use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot his new PPF on the previous graph. artunity cost of producing balls is it was previously.
