The production possibility curve is concave due to the increasing opportunity cost that is the nation has to give up more and more resources for producing an additional unit of the other product.
The technological innovation would enable more products with the given resource so the production possibility curve would shift outward but here the technological progress has happened only for Apple watches so the left part side of the PPF shift outward as shown in the graph. Here the opportunity for producing the i phone will increase.

a) Draw a production possibility frontier for blue jeans and computers that illustrates the law of increasing opportunity cost. b) Clearly explain how you know that your graph follows the law of increasing opportunity cost. c) Suppose a new technology for producing blue jeans is developed that allows more blue jeans to be produced with the same amount of resources as before. Show this change on your diagram. Explain what happens to the opportunity cost of producing computers and why
