B) less than full employment but production efficiency.

C) both full resource employment and production efficiency.

D) less than full employment and production inefficiency.

 

34) Refer to Figure 2.2. Microland is currently operating at Point B. You correctly deduce that

B) Microland has achieved a position of inefficiency.

C) Microland has recently experienced some type of technological breakthrough.

D) Microland has overcome the problem of scarcity.

 

35) The production possibility frontier is a graph that shows

A) all the combinations of goods and services that are consumed over time if all of society’s resources are used efficiently.

B) the amount of goods and services consumed at various average price levels.

C) the rate at which an economy’s output will grow over time if all resources are used efficiently.

D) all the combinations of goods and services that can be produced if all of society’s resources are used efficiently.

36) Production inefficiency occurs

A) only when an economy produces underneath its production possibility frontier.

B) only when an economy produces at the wrong point on the production possibility frontier.

C) either when an economy produces underneath the production possibility frontier or when the economy is producing the wrong combination of goods on the production possibility frontier.

D) only when the economy produces outside the production possibility frontier.

 

37) An economy that is producing on the production possibility frontier at some point other than the output of efficient allocation is

A) efficient, as it is on the production possibility frontier.

B) inefficient, as the combination of goods and services produced is not what people want.

C) efficient, as the economy is producing goods at the lowest possible cost.

D) inefficient, as that combination of goods could be produced at a lower cost if more efficient technology were employed.

 

38) If resources are combined efficiently in production, then the society

A) is producing at the most-desirable point on the production possibility frontier.

B) is producing at a point on the production possibility frontier but not necessarily at the most-desirable point.

B) farther away from its ppf.

C) from a point along its ppf to a point outside its ppf.
