This three lesson series will teach you about the economics behind production possibilities. The first lesson will introduce you to production possibility frontiers (PPF), what they are, how they work, why they're important and how they're applied in Economics. The next lesson looks at impacts that technology changes and resource changes can have on the PPF. The final lesson will teach you how to model out the PPF using alegbraic expressions and equations.
Taught by Professor Tomlinson, this video series was selected from a broader, comprehensive course, Economics. This course and others are available from Thinkwell, Inc.
