Slope of production possibility frontier
Constant Marginal cost
Why does production possibility curve concave to the origin?
Because the marginal cost of producing the goods are increasing
Explain where both countries will gain from trade
Yes, because the maximum consumption possibility increase after trade for both countries
How to determine which country of comparative advantage in curve graph
If terms of trade is larger than opportunity cost then have comparative advantage and X
If opportunity causes larger than terms of trade then have comparative advantage in Y
越平越細 flatter the smaller the angle
Keep in mind
PPF=CPF1
P1=C1
But after trade,
CPF2=TOT
P2
C2
