7. One difference between Production Possibilities Curves B and C
in Figure 2 is that:
- the opportunity cost of good 1 in terms of good 2 is constant
on curve B, but is different at different points on curve C.
- the opportunity cost of good 1 in terms of good 2 is constant
on C, but is different at different points on B.
- curve B implies that good 1 is always preferred to good 2.
- if all resources are used to produce good 2, then B implies more
can be produced than on C.
- curve B implies more efficient production of both goods than C.
