Truth itself will receive an Addition of Strength by being opposed, and can never be in Danger of suffering by the Test of Argument.”Source: Sir John Randolph, from his speech upon his being elected speaker of the House of Burgesses, of Virginia, 1734The ideas described in the excerpt reflect how in the early years of the British colonies, they

(01.01–01.03, 05.06 HC) Assume that Atlantis and the Mushroom Kingdom use equal resources to produce consumer and capital goods, as illustrated in the table below showing maximum possible production figures. Country Capital Goods Consumer Goods Atlantis 60 units 180 units Mushroom Kingdom 20 units 100 units Draw a fully labeled production possibility curve for Atlantis. Place capital goods on the vertical axis and consumer goods on the horizontal axis. Assume constant opportunity cost. On your graph from part (a), label an inefficient point of production I, an efficient point of production E, and an unattainable point of production U. Which country has the comparative advantage in the production of capital goods? Explain. If Atlantis shifted from producing 10 units of capital goods and 150 units of consumer goods to producing 24 units of capital goods and 108 units of consumer goods, what would be the impact on its economic growth in the long run? Based on the data table, what range of capital goods could be traded for 15 units of consumer goods that would be mutually beneficial?
