Ans:
11) Option 3
blows up buildings ; kills bad guys
The opportunity cost for john when killing bad guys is 0.4 , i.e(2/5)
The opportunity cost for jane when killing bad guys is 0.67 , i.e(4/6) John should specialize in killing bad gays since the opportunity cost is lower and Jane should specialize in blow up buildings.
12) Option D
All of the above are attainable for krishna
The production possibility frontier (PPF) represents all maximum output possibilities for two goods when the existing resourses are used efficiently.In this case the maximum possible output for krishna is 10 units of it services and 5 units of hardware drives per period.

Outward ; inward
The new technology increases the output and PPF shifts outwards and the fire decrease the output and the PPF shifts inward.
