Answer:
The correct answer is option A.
Explanation:
A production possibility curve shows the different bundles of maximum possible two goods that can be produced using the given resources. The production possibility curve is concave to the origin.
This shape of the curve is because of opportunity cost. We know that to increase the production of one commodity we need to sacrifice production of its alternative.
The resources can not be perfectly substituted and the opportunity cost goes on increasing with the increase in output, that's why the production possibility curve is bowed out or concave to the origin.
Answer: B) The supply of goods like clothes will decrease.
Explanation:
All else being equal, the local retail market for clothes will see a reduction in supply for clothes. This is simply as a result of less shops offering clothes than before because some have closed down as they couldn't keep up with online retail stores.
For example, the entire supply of Jeans for the town of Jeanophia were from 5 stores with each selling 5 jeans. 3 stores have closed down due to competition from jeanyjeans.com and now only 2 stores are open which has reduced the supply from 25 jeans to 10 jeans.
