Was his student last year , the night before exam , I freak out on a question ard 2am .. Smsed him and wad surprise me was he called me.. Explain to me .

Very nice lecturer.
Dont miss his lessons!

Any of u all done the hw for econs?? How do i explain qns 1 on whether is it true or false?? Got a bit stuck at explanation. Done and draw out the graph though. Producing 70 units of y at L labor is considered productive efficient as it falls on the PPF, however, it is considered as allocative inefficient because there are labor of unemployment and thus got inefficiency as well. So how do i explain it??

you must say efficient if the society thinks that unemployment in acceptable. however, if the society wants full employment, it is allocative inefficient.

do we have to use simultaneous equations to find the reference point?

if the reference point you are talking about is when y = 70, you got to substitute it into the right equation (the PPF has 2 eqn which starts and end at different places.)

Yea, u need to find the ref point so that u can determine that y = 70 falls on which eqn as there are 2 eqns on the PPF.

if the reference point you are talking about is when y = 70, you got to substitute it into the right equation (the PPF has 2 eqn which starts and end at different places.)

How do i determine which equation is the right equation to sub in? I have found the reference point.

U see the point at y = 70 falls on which line on the PPF. If it falls on the L line then is labor constraint and that is sub in to the eqn for labor. If it falls on the K line then is capital constraint and that is sub in to the eqn for capital.
