Question
The following graph shows a PPC for the imaginary country of Caldonia producing flyboats and time-stopping watches.
Suppose a technological change improves production of time-stopping watches. So Caldonia can make more time-stopping watches with the
same amount of resources, whereas production of time-stopping watches does not change.
Adjust the vertical and horizontal intercepts of the PPC to show the effect of the the technological change on Caldonia's economy. (Hint: Do not move
the intercept if the production of a good is not affected.)
