A biotechnology firm allocates its fixed laboratory capacity and research hours between the development of two medical products: therapeutic vaccines and diagnostic test kits.
Draw a production possibility frontier (PPF) diagram showing the potential output of these two products and, assuming all research resources are fully and efficiently employed, label a point X where no resources are allocated to therapeutic vaccines.
