	A	B	C	D	E	F
Hot pockets	$15$	$12$	$9$	$6$	$2$	$0$
Eggs	$0$	$6$	$11$	$15$	$18$	$20$

According to the production possibilities curve in Table, a combination of $3$ Hot Pockets and $15$ Eggs:

• A. Is attainable and it involves an efficient use of society's resources
• B. Is attainable but involves the unemployment or inefficient use of some of society's resources
• C. Is not attainable given society's current resources and technology
• D. May be produced only if the production possibilities curve shifts inward

Answer 1

The correct option is B Is attainable but involves the unemployment or inefficient use of some of society's resources

When economy produces 15 eggs, it has the required resources to produce 6 hot pockets. So if it produces less hot pockets with the same production of eggs, the economy has to under utilize the supplied resources.
