Solved in 2 steps
- "Only answer c-d ones" (a) Calculate the opportunity cost of producing one additional unit of good x in terms of units of good y in Home and Foreign. The opportunity cost of producing one additional unit of good x in Home or foreign is the amount of good y that must be given up to produce it. At Home, one worker can produce 2 units of good x or 1 unit of good y. Thus, to produce one additional unit of good x, half a unit of good y must be given up. The opportunity cost in Home is 0.5 units of good y. In Foreign, one worker can produce 1 unit of good x or 2 units of good y. To produce one additional unit of good x, two units of good y must be given up. The opportunity cost in Foreign is 2 units of good y. (b) Derive the production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Home and Foreign and plot it in a graph with good x in the horizontal axis and good y in the vertical axis. To derive the production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Home and Foreign, we use the labor market clearing condition…Combination Bananas metric tons (X axis) Coffee metric tons (Y axis) A 20,000 0 B 18,000 11,000 C 14,000 20,000 D 8,000 27,000 E 0 30,000 What is the opportunity cost (amount & item) of the first 11,000 tons of coffee produced? ______________________ What is the opportunity cost (amount & item) of increasing production from 11,000 tons of coffee to 20,000 tons of coffee ? ________________ What is the opportunity cost (amount & item )of increasing production from 20,000 tons of coffee to 27,000 tons of coffee? ____________Home has 1,200 units of labor available.
