A point on the production possibility frontier represents a combination of goods that is efficient, meaning all resources are fully employed, and any increase in the production of one good requires a tradeoff of the production of the other good. However, point D lies beyond the production possibility frontier, which means it is not currently attainable with the given resources and technology. Therefore, it is not an efficient rate of production per period. The best choice(s) would be any combination of points that lie on the production possibility frontier.
