On a graph of a production possibilities frontier (PPF), maximum combinations of outputs are represented by

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Points on the PPF represent the maximum combinations of outputs that can be produced given the available resources and technology. Points inside the PPF are inefficient because resources are not fully utilized, and points outside the PPF are unattainable given the current resources and technology. The slope of the PPF represents the opportunity cost of producing one good in terms of the other, but it does not represent maximum combinations of outputs.
