Answer:

A. wastefulness - production inside PPC ; B. Economy growth - PPC shift outwards/rightwards ; C. Economy at Productive Efficiency - production on PPC ; D. Unattainable Production- Outside PPC

Explanation:

PPC is graphical representation of production combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.

PPC is based on assumption : That resources are best efficiently utilised. So, all product combinations ON PPC reflect 'Economy is at Productive Efficiency'

All production points INSIDE PPC reflect inefficient utilisation of resources i.e 'Wastage'

Points OUTSIDE PPC are 'Unattainable Product Combinations'- as they are beyond economy's best optimum production, given resources & technology.

'Economic growth' is increase in resources &/or technology which increases economy's production potential and PPC curve SHIFTS rightwards or outwards.

gomez runs a small pottery firm. he hires one helper at $11,000 per year, pays annual rent of $6,000 for his shop, and spends $2
7nadin3 [17]

For a poetry farm, the capital gain is $70,000 while the economic profit is $6,000.

<h3>Why does accounting profit exist?</h3>

The owner's profit, or company profit, is what is meant by accounting profit. This profit may be obtained by totaling all business income and deducting specified costs from the total. The explicit cost in this context refers to expenses spent in the course of operating the firm, such as rent paid, labor costs paid, materials acquired, etc.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Accounting costs = Helper cost + Annual rent + materials = $(11,000 + 6,000 + 22,000) = $39,000

Accounting profit = Revenue - Accounting cost = $(70,000 - 39,000) = $31,000

Implicit costs = Interest from savings foregone + earning from alternative job + entrepreneurial talent

= $(4,500 + 17,000 + 3,500) = $25,000

Economic profit = Accounting profit - Implicit costs = $(31,000 - 25,000) = $6,000
