Why does a production possibilities curve have a bowed-out shape?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
The PPF is bowed outwards (concave to the origin) as tradeoffs between the production of any two goods are constant.

Is the value of mean equals 35.4 and value of median equals 35 the shape of the curve skewed is?
the shape of the curve skewed is "right"
Which shape is a closed curve shaped like an egg?
An ellipse.
What shape has 3 rectangles?
There is no shape which has only three rectangle. And, if it has other faces, then there are many possibilities.

What is a protractor in geometry?
A protractor is any of several devices used to either define an angle or curve, or to draw an angle, curve, or shape.
What is the most common shape of a production possibility frontier curve?
It is typically a bowed-out shaped.
Why is product possibility curve linear?
The production possibility curve is not always linear, in fact, it is usually concave down (bowed-in). The shape of the curve depends on the substutability of the goods described by the curve in the question. When goods are perfectly substitutable in production, the PPP (or PPF) is linear.
A production possibilities frontier with a bowed outward shape indicates?
A production possibilities frontier with a bowed outward shape indicates an increase in opportunity costs as more and more of one good is produced. Some resources are more specialized towards specific tasks.
What is learning curve according to cost of production?
The learning curve is reverse 'J' shaped. Its shape indicates that the cost of production rises with rise in quantity produced but to an extent. After that point it stops increasing. It happens because the management or the production department learns to control the cost of production from past mistakes or experience or by reffering previous data. so, the learning to control the cost has named this curve as learning curve. when the cost stops rising and it stabilises then the curve becomes a straight line acordingly.....and it forms the shape of reverse 'J'.
What does law of increasing opportunity cost express?
The law of increasing opportunity costs states that as production of a product increases, the cost to produce an additional unit of that product increases as well. This law is responsible for the bowed shape of the production possibilities curve. Because not all of our economy's resources are equally well-suited to the production of a single good, the increasing opportunity cost is present.
What is modern theory of cost of production?
the traditional theory explains cost curve u shape, but in modern theory says that cost curve L shape
What shape is a Cooling curve graph?
A Cooling curve graph changes shape.
What is the most common shape of a production possibility curve Explain why this is so?
The most common shape of a Production Possibility Curve (PPC) is a concave bulging in towards the origin (or a quarter circle from one axis to the other.) This is due to the fact that as the production in one goods increase, the opportunity cost of producing the extra of that good (or the amount of Good B that it has to give up) become less.
Why is ppc bowed out?
hey-- its the law of increasing costs. as you make one thing, your opportunity cost increases because you cannot make the other. therefore, the more of one thing you make, the larger the cost will be because you cannot make the other. therefore, the shape of the production possibilities curve is bowed out.
