4. Shifts in production possibilities Suppose Spain produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for alfalfa, an agricultural good, and locomotives, a capital good. Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a breakout of avian flu that sickens millions of workers. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.

R Imagine that it costs $40 in the United States to produce one ton of soybeans and transport them to market, while it costs $30 in Brazil to produce one ton of soybeans and transport them to market Imagine that it costs $20,000 in the United States to produce one automobile and transport it to maket, while costs $10,000 in Brazil to produce one automobile and transport it to market. Which of the following four arrangements would be most efficient? (Hint: Derived OC from PPF (production) = 1/OC derived from costs to make ) a. The United States should produce everything, since it can produce both soybeans and automobiles better than Brazil can produce them. Ob. Brazil should specialize and produce only automobiles. The United States should specialize and produce only soybeans. Then the two countries should trade with each other. Brazil will send automobiles to the United States, while the United States sends soybeans to the Brazil. Oc. The United States should specialize and produce…

Figure 1 The production possibility frontier ABCDE is a production possibility frontier. It shows the different combinations of goods which can be produced if all resources are fully and efficiently utilised. The economy can produce at any point on the line. It cannot produce at G because the PPF shows the maximum that can be produced. It can produce within the PPF,05 such as at F, but less will be produced than the maximum possible.
