PPF : Downward Sloping Straight Line
Explanation:
PPF is the locus of product combinations that an economy can produce, given resources & technology.
It is downward sloping : Because of inverse relationship between two goods- if one has to be increased other has to be decreased , because of same resources & technology.
Marginal Opportunity Cost (Slope of PPC): is ratio of a good sacrifised to gain each additional unit of the other good.
∆ Good sacrifised / ∆ Good gained
If this ratio is same i.e constant amount of a good is sacrifised to gain an additional amount of the other one , the slope of PPC is constant & it is a straight line
Eg : Good1 Good2 MOC [∆Good2/∆Good1]
0 20 _
10 10 -10/10 = -1 (10-20)/(10-0)
20 0 -10/10 = -1 (0-10)(/20-10)
So , same (1) good 2 is sacrifised to attain a good 1 each time.
However Generally: MOC is increasing , because of assumption that resources are unequally efficient in various goods production - shifting good from efficient to inefficient increases sacrifise each time. This makes PPC usually concave.

Answer:
Option E Strategic Positioning
Explanation:
Though it seems that the company has investment in a specific niche market segment but this doesn't mean that the blue ocean strategy is followed by the company because it is not given that the competitors can whether or not manufacture such products based on their capabilities.
Furthermore, the investment is in the same industry so the investment is not diversified investment.
It is also worth noting that the company has no ambition of moving to acquire the capabilities of customers or suppliers so it is not part of vertical integration.
The company has not opted to defensive strategy otherwise it would had tried to increase its marketing budget and save costs on manufacturing and other operations.
The strategic positioning follows three principles. The first principle is that the company tries to increase the value for the shareholders by positioning the business in a specific segment which the The Toy Box Inc did by manufacturing products from expensive to low priced products. The second principle is trading-off the competition gains and losses which Toy Box Inc tried to do by offering inexpensive products as well. The third principle is finding the fit among operations of the business which Toy Box Inc did successfully by integrating marketing department with other departments. The result of integration was that the company increased its sales by offering 10% discounts on its products.
