Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Point Q represents a combination of producing more apples and more wheat than at point P. This means that there needs to be an increase in resources and/or technology to increase production. Option A (full-employment policies) and option B (a technological advance in the production of apples only) would only affect the production of apples, not wheat. Option D (a transfer of available resources from apples to wheat) would result in producing less apples and more wheat than at point P. Therefore, the only option that would make point Q attainable is an increase in land available for agriculture, which would allow for more production of both apples and wheat.
