Question
multiple choice question in the real world, the opportunity cost increases as production increases, because: some resources are better suited for producing some goods or services than others. prices rise over time, so costs will increase. the cost of producing more of one good is the forgone production of another good. higher production levels are always associated with higher costs.
The increasing opportunity cost in production arises because resources are not perfectly adaptable to producing all goods. When shifting resources from producing one good to another, the first resources moved are those least suited for the original good but most suited for the new one. As more of the new good is produced, resources that are better suited for the original good must be shifted, leading to higher opportunity cost per additional unit of the new good.
