- What does a production possibilities frontier illustrate?It is clear that productive inefficiency is a waste since resources are used in a way that produces less goods and services than a nation is capable of. Why is allocative inefficiency also wasteful?Below is a table of production possibilities for a company that produces soft drink bottles and juice bottles (in thousands of units per week): Production alternatives production type A B C D E F Set of 8 soft drink bottles 0 4 10 15 19 22 12 juice box 58 56 48 32 16 0 Plot this data on a graph. What specific assumptions are represented by this production possibilities curve? If a firm is at point C, what is the opportunity cost of an additional set of soft drinks? From an extra juice box? If the company characterized in this table produced 7 sets of 8 bottles of soda and 40 cases of 12 juices, what could be concluded about the use of available resources? Is production currently possible at a point outside the production possibilities curve? Explain your answer.
