Tim and Alyssa are farmers. Each one owns a 20-acre plot of land. The following table shows the amount of alfalfa and barley each farmer can produce per year on a given acre. Each farmer chooses whether to devote all acres to producing alfalfa or barley or to produce alfalfa on some of the land and barley on the rest. Alfalfa Barley (Bushels per acre) (Bushels per acre) Tim 20 4 Alyssa 28 7 On the following graph, use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot Tim's production possibilities frontier (PPF), and use the purple line (diamond symbol) to plot Alyssa's PPF. ______ has an absolute advantage in the production of alfalfa, and_____ has an absolute advantage in the production of barley. Tim's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is______ bushels of alfalfa, whereas Alyssa's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of barley is_____bushels of alfalfa. Because Tim has a _____ opportunity cost of producing barley than Alyssa,…
