Question

question 7 (10 points) ✔ saved which of the following will shift a production possibilities curve outward? a decrease in available labour and capital an increase in funding for entrepreneurs a decrease in the price of oil an increase in wages

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A production possibilities curve (PPC) shifts outward when an economy's productive capacity increases.

  • A decrease in labour/capital reduces capacity, shifting PPC inward.
  • Lower oil prices are a temporary input cost change, not a long-term capacity increase.
  • Higher wages raise production costs but do not expand overall productive capacity.
  • Increased funding for entrepreneurs supports innovation, expansion of production capabilities, and investment in new resources, which increases the economy's maximum potential output, shifting the PPC outward.

Answer:

B. an increase in funding for entrepreneurs
