What is the difference between a positive and a normative statement?
Why is a production possibilities frontier typically drawn as a curve, rather than a straight line?
why is the market for recycled aluminium good and the market for plastic bad in the US? Depict this with a firm input choice model. I understand that recycled plastic decreases in qualiy everytime it is recycled while aluminium does not and can be recylced without the decrease in quality, but I dont know how to depict this graphically
Below is a production possibilities table for consumer goods (automobiles) and capital goods (forklifts): a. Show these data graphically. Upon what specifific assumptions is this production possibilities curve based?b. If the economy is at point C, what is the cost of one more automobile? Of one more forklift? Explain how the production possibilities curve reflfl ects the law of increasing opportunity costs.c. If the economy characterized by this production possibilities table and curve were producing 3 automobiles and 20 fork lifts, what could you conclude about its use of its available resources?d. What would production at a point outside the production possibilities curve indicate? What must occur before the economy can attain such a level of production?

Sharon is a skilled toy maker who is able to produce both trains and balls. She has 8 hours a day to produce toys. The following table shows the daily output resulting from various possible combinations of her time. Choice Hours Producing Produced (Trains) (Balls) (Trains) (Balls) A 8 0 4 0 B 6 2 3 11 C 4 4 2 15 D 2 6 1 18 E 0 8 0 19 On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot Sharon's initial production possibilities frontier (PPF). Suppose Sharon buys a new tool that enables her to produce twice as many trains per hour as before, but it doesn't affect her ability to produce balls. Use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot her new PPF on the previous graph. Because she can now make more trains per hour, Sharon's opportunity cost of producing balls is ____________ it was previously.
