3.

Assume that this society is currently producing at combination X, where they are allocating more resources toward the production of capital goods (physical capital) than consumer goods (clothing, toys, etc.). Which of the following is the most likely result of the allocation choice?

Consumers will petition the government to reallocate resources toward Point W.

Productive capacity will increase, enabling the PPC to shift out toward Point Y.

Few consumer choices will be available, and the economy will decline to point Z.

There will be an overproduction of capital goods, leading to a collapse of the market.
