Explanation / Answer

(1) Option (1)

Since the floor price is higher than equilibrium price, quantity demanded will fall and quantity supplied will rise, creating a surplus. But a government imposed price floor means that price cannot fall below this level, therefore price will rise to $24.

(2) Option (4)

The more the amount of capital goods being produced, the higher will the growth rate be.

(3) Option (3)

At point D, number of Robots = 11 and number of Outboard motors = 12

At point C, number of Robots = 15 and number of Outboard motors = 8

Opportunity cost = Decrease in number of outboard motors = 12 - 8 = 4
