One point on a PPF shows production levels at 50 tons of coffee and 100 tons of bananas. Remaining on the PPF, an increase of banana production to 140 tons shows coffee production at 30 tons.

  B) decreasing, since the increase in banana production is less at each point considered.
  C) 16 to 1, that is every 1 ton of coffee given up will result in 16 more tons of bananas.
  D) increasing from 1/2 ton of coffee per ton of bananas to 1 ton of coffee per ton of bananas.
