Answer: Production

The PPF graphically demonstrates the limits of an economy's productive capacity. Points on the curve represent maximum efficiency (full employment of resources), points inside the curve represent inefficiency or unemployment, and points outside the curve are currently unattainable without technological advancement or resource expansion. The bowed-out shape of the PPF reflects the law of increasing opportunity costs.
