The law of increasing opportunity cost tells us that, as the economy moves along the production possibilities curve in the direction of more of one good, its opportunity cost will increase.

<h3>What is economy ?</h3>

An economy is a region where products and services are produced, distributed, traded, and consumed. It is generally understood to be a social domain that places an emphasis on the behaviors, discourses, and tangible manifestations connected to the creation, utilization, and management of finite resources.

One's culture, values, education, technological advancement, history, social organization, political structure, legal system, and natural resources are all major determinants of an economy's processes. These elements determine the parameters and conditions under which an economy operates in addition to providing background and content. In other words, the economic realm is a social domain made up of connected human behaviors and exchanges that cannot exist independently.

Individuals, companies, organizations, or governments all qualify as economic actors.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": It decreases the size of your principal and decreases the total cost of the loan .

Down payments are the initial sums debtors pay when requesting a credit. Down payments are usually mandatory but the debtor can offer the sum voluntarily.

<em />

<em>If the sum provided in the down payment is higher than what is requested, the amount of the principal will be lower. If the amount of the principal is lower, the total of the interest paid in the course to the loan will be lower as well, thus, the cost of the loan will be reduced.</em>

Marginal product=change in total product/change in variable inputs

=275-150/1

=125/1

=125 birdhouses per month
