Question

Consider two straight-line PPFs. They have the same vertical intercept, but curve I is flatter than curve II. The opportunity cost of producing the good on the vertical axisa.is greater along curve I.b.is greater along curve II.c.is the same along both curves.d.cannot be compared for the two curves without more information

Answer 1

Answer:

a.is greater along curve I

Explanation:

The production probability frontier also known as PPF is a graph that shows the different combinations of two goods that can be generated by utilizing the available resources that the two goods require for their production. Based on the statement in the question, the opportunity cost of manufacturing the good located on the y-axis will be higher along curve I.
