Your friend sam has been asked to prepare appetizers for a university reception during homecoming weekend. she has an unlimited amount of ingredients but only six hours to prepare them. sam can make 300 mini-sandwiches or 150 servings of melon slices topped with smoked salmon and a dab of sauce per hour. draw sam's production posiibilities frontier.

Downward sloping curve with 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spices

Explanation:

PPC reflects production combinations (2 goods), which can be produced given same resources & technology. It is downward sloping because of inverse relationship between two goods, one good increase leads to other good decrease - given same resources & technology.

In this case, it is with analogous factors : production possibilities with respect to unlimited ingredients (resources), limited time. Although resources are given to be unlimited, PPC is likely to be downward sloping : because of inverse relationship between goods - based on time constraint (one good increase will withdraw time from other good & reduce it).

The PPC intercept on X & Y axis represents the maximum amount of that axis good, which can be produced. So: it has 300 intercept on mini sandwich axis, 150 intercept on melon spice axis.

The slope & shape of PPC depends on Marginal Opportunity Cost, which depends on relative efficiency of resources in two goods.

Resources equally efficient - Constant Good Sacrifise Ratio i.e MOC - PPC straight line. Resources unequally efficient - Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from efficient to inefficient good) i.e MOC rising - PPC Concave. Increasing Sacrifise Ratio (from inefficient resources to efficient resources) i.e MOC falling - PPC Convex.

If MOC between mini sandwiches & melon spices is constant, PPC is straight line . If MOC between them is rising, PPC is concave. If MOC between them is falling, PPC is convex.

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
