17. Opportunity cost and production possibilities Musashi is a skilled toy maker who is able to produce both trains and balls. He has 8 hours a day to produce toys. The following table shows the daily output resulting from various possible combinations of his time. Choice A B D Hours Producing (Trains) 8 4 2 (Trains) (Balls) 0 4 4 Produced B 3 2 1 0 A (Balls) 0 10 16 19 20 On the following graph, use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot Musashi's initial production possibilities frontier (PPP). Intal PPF
30 BALLS 25 20 16 40 6 TRAINS o Initial PPF A New PPF Suppose Musashi is currently using combination D, producing one train per day. His opportunity cost of producing a second train per day is per day. Now, suppose Musashi is currently using combination C, producing two trains per day. His opportunity cost of producing a third train per day is per day. From the previous analysis, you can determine that as Musashi increases his production of trains, his opportunity cost of producing one more train
5 2 3 TRAINS 5 0 Suppose Musashi is currently using combination D, producing one train per day. His opportunity cost of producing a second train per day is per day. Now, suppose Musashi is currently using combination C, producing two trains per day. His opportunity cost of producing a third train per day is per day. From the previous analysis, you can determine that as Musashi increases his production of trains, his opportunity cost of producing one more train increases Suppose Musashi buys a new tool that enables him to produce twice as many trains per hour as before, but it doesn't affect his ability to produce balls. Use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot his new PPF on the previous graph. Because he can now make more trains per hour, Musashi's opportunity cost of producing balls is it was previously
