If want
consumer goods, one have to sacrifice capital goods, vice versa.

PPC is a curve
showing the various combinations of the maximum quantity of 2 outputs that an
economy can produce within a specified period of time with all its resources
fully and efficiently employed, assuming
a particular state of technology.

What are
consumer goods and capital goods meant for?
-
How a PPC does
shows scarcity?
|
-
Consumer goods
are meant for final consumption while capital goods are used to produce
consumption goods in the future.
-
The PPC is a boundary: it is a curve that shows the
limit of what an economy can produce with a given amount of scarce resources.
Anything beyond the boundary cannot be produced because there are not enough
resources available. This is how it shows scarcity.
-
Choosing
to produce capital goods or consumer goods would have a different effect on
the economy, as capital goods would benefit the economy in the long run, as
it will shift the PPC to the right, allowing for more goods to be produced in
the future. However, consumer goods would satisfy consumers for now, but
would not have a long term effect on the economy which means that it would
not benefit us in the long run.
