Question

Suppose a flood changes the production capacity in a country. How would you represent this situation with a production possibilities frontier?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The flood will lead to the destruction of the resources in the country.This will result in the shifting of the PPC curve leftward in the economy.

Earlier PPC is represented by PP curve.After the floods and destruction of resources,the curve shifts to P1P1.It is due to the availability of the number of possible combinations which decreases with the destruction of resources.
