1. Refer to the fruit farm produces only apples and pears. The table below shows the maximum possible output combinations of the two fruits using all resources and currently available technology. a. Graph the fruit farm's production possibilities frontier. Put apples on the horizontal axis and pears on the vertical axis. Be sure to identify the output combination points on your diagram. b. Suppose the fruit farm is currently producing at point D. What happens to the opportunity cost of producing an additional 8,000 kilos of pears? c. Suppose the fruit farm is currently producing at the point D. What happens to the opportunity cost of producing more and more pears? Does it increase, decrease or remain constant? Explain the answer. d. Suppose the fruit farm is currently producing at the point G. What happens to the opportunity cost of producing more and more apples? Ford it increase, decrease or remain constant? Explain your answer. e. Suppose the fruit farm is plagued by a maggot infestation which destroy apple trees but not pears. Show in graph what happens to its PPF.
