In business analysis, the production possibility frontier (PPF) is a curve illustrating the varying amounts of two products that can be produced when both depend on the same finite resources. The PPF demonstrates that the production of one commodity may increase only if the production of the other commodity decreases.

Is production possibility curve upward and concave?

PPC is concave shaped because of increasing marginal rate of transformation. ... PPC is convex shaped because of decreasing marginal rate of transformation.

Is production possibility curve a concave?

Production Possibility Curve (PPC) is concave to the origin because of the increasing opportunity cost. As we move down along the PPC, to produce each additional unit of one good, more and more units of other good need to be sacrificed. That is, as we move down along the PPC, the opportunity cost increases.
