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.

Fosnight Enterprises prepared the following sales budget:
Month Budgeted Sales
March $6,000
April $13,000
May $11,000
June $20,000
The expected gross profit rate is 20% and the inventory at the end of February was $7,000. Desired inventory levels at the end of the month are 30% of the next month's cost of goods sold. What are the total purchases budgeted for May?
Answer:
Purchases - May = $10960
Explanation:
To calculate the total value of purchases that are budgeted for May, we first need to calculate the cost of goods sold and the opening and closing inventory for May.
As the gross profit margin is 20%, the cost of goods sold will be 80% of sales.
Cost of goods sold for May = 0.8 * 11000 = $8800
Cost of goods sold for June = 0.8 * 20000 = $16000
Opening inventory - May = 8800 * 0.3 = $2640
Closing Inventory - May = 16000 * 0.3 = $4800
Purchases = Closing Inventory + Cost of Goods Sold for the month - Opening Inventory
Purchases - May = 4800 + 8800 - 2640
Purchases - May = $10960
