Specialization and production possibilities Suppose Spain produces only tablets and smartphones. The resources that are used in the production of these two goods are not specialized-that is, dy Tools the same set of resources is equally useful in producing both smartphones and tablets. The shape of Spain's production possibilities frontier (PPF) should reflect the fact that as Spain produces more smartphones and fewer tablets, the opportunity cost of producing each additional smartphone Tips The following graphs show two possible PPFS for Spain's economy: a straight-line PPF (PPF1) and a bowed-out PPF (PPF2).
