Question 32

Multiple Choice

Figure 1.1 - Production Possibilities and Opportunity Costs: Linear Model versus Non-Linear Model Figure 1.1 - Production Possibilities and Opportunity Costs: Linear Model versus Non-Linear Model   In the linear production possibilities model,we assume each of five equally-sized parcels of land contributes the same to the production of food and timber: 6 units of timber or 3 units of food. By contrast,in the non-linear model,we will assume that there are five different types of land in equal-sized plots and that each plot may contribute as follows to the production of   -Assuming all parcels of land are the same,when all land is in use,one more unit of timber produced will require… A)  Two more units of food produced B)  Five fewer units of food produced C)  One-half fewer units of food produced D)  Two fewer units of food produced In the linear production possibilities model,we assume each of five equally-sized parcels of land contributes the same to the production of food and timber: 6 units of timber or 3 units of food.
