The production possibilities boundary shows possible combinations of guns and butter that can be produced by a country. The lower diagram shows demand and supply for butter.



FIGURE 12-2

Refer to Figure 12-2. Demand and supply for butter are shown by D and S. Suppose the economy is at point (a) on the production possibilities boundary. Is this output of guns and butter allocatively efficient?


◦ Yes, because the marginal cost of producing the butter equals the marginal value of consuming the butter.
◦ No, because the marginal value to consumers of the butter produced is greater than the marginal cost to producers.
◦ Yes, because all points on the production possibilities boundary are allocatively efficient.
◦ No, because the marginal cost to producers of the butter produced is more than the marginal value to consumers.
◦ No, because the marginal costs for guns and butter are not equated.
