The opportunity cost of moving from point B to point D is different from the opportunity cost of moving from point D to point C because the slope of the production possibilities frontier (PPF) is different in each of the two segments. This means that the trade-offs between producing the two goods are not constant, and the opportunity cost of producing more of one good increases as you move along the PPF.
