Optimal or best product-mix:

1. It will be some point on the curve.

2. The exact point depends on society; this is a normative decision.

Law of increasing opportunity costs:

1. The amount of other products that must be foregone to obtain more of any given product is called the opportunity cost.

2. Opportunity costs are measured in real terms rather than money (market prices are not part of the production possibilities model.)

3. The more of a product produced the greater is its (marginal) opportunity cost.

4. For increasing opportunity cost the slope of the production possibilities curve becomes demonstrating as well as steeper.  This constructs the curve as it emerges concave from the origin and bowed out.
