A point inside the PPF means that resources are not being used efficiently. One or more resources (Land, labor, or capital) is being waisted or not used to its potential. More of both goods could be produced than are currently being produced.
A point of underutilization on a production possibilities graph appears inside the production possibilities frontier (PPF). This indicates that the economy is not using all of its available resources efficiently, resulting in lower output than the maximum potential. Such points suggest that improvements can be made to increase production without sacrificing other goods.
Points outside the frontier are unattainable because they represent combinations of resources or outputs that exceed the current capacity or efficiency of an economy or production system. The frontier itself, often depicted as a production possibilities frontier (PPF), illustrates the maximum feasible output combinations given existing resources and technology. Any point beyond this boundary indicates a level of production that cannot be achieved without improvements in resources, technology, or efficiency. In essence, these unattainable points highlight the limits of current capabilities.
Point F violates the assumption of the production-possibility curve that resources and technology are not fixed. The curve is sometimes referred to as the productionâ??possibility frontier.
Then the point is not outside the polygon...?
Basically the PPC represents the hypothetical amount of two different goods that could be obtained by using resources from the production of one for the production of the other. It also describes society's choice between two different goods. When a point is on the curve it means all the resources for those goods is at full employment, anything under the curve is at under-employment, and anything beyond the curve indicates potential growth.
Attainable.

This represents a production point that could be achieved if there were suffecient resources available.
A point of underutilization would appear inside the production possibilities frontier (PPF). This indicates that the economy is not using all its resources efficiently, resulting in fewer outputs than the maximum potential. Such a point suggests that resources, such as labor or capital, are either idle or not being fully employed in the production process.
If a society is operating inside the production possibilities frontier (PPF), it indicates that it is not utilizing its resources efficiently. This could mean that there is unemployment, underemployment, or misallocation of resources, resulting in lower output than what is possible. Consequently, the society is not maximizing its potential production of goods and services. To move towards the PPF, improvements in efficiency or resource allocation would be necessary.
Attainable, but the economy is inefficient.
A point of underutilization on a production possibilities graph appears inside the production possibilities frontier (PPF). This indicates that the economy is not using all of its available resources efficiently, resulting in lower output than the maximum potential. Such points suggest that improvements can be made to increase production without sacrificing other goods.
A point inside a production possibilities curve represents things that can be produced. However, points inside the curve would be less efficient to produce than those points resting directly on the line.
At any point of underutilization/any point inside of the curve
