Arrange the following steps in the correct order to analyze the opportunity costs when moving resources from the production of good Y to good X using a production possibilities curve (PPC): A) Evaluate the potential increase in production of good X, B) Identify the resources currently allocated to good Y, C) Calculate the opportunity cost of producing more of good X, D) Assess the new production point on the PPC.

To analyze opportunity costs when shifting resources from good Y to good X using a production possibilities curve (PPC), you first need to identify the resources currently allocated to good Y. Once you know which resources you are using for good Y, you can evaluate the potential increase in production of good X by reallocating those resources. After determining how much more of good X you can produce, you then calculate the opportunity cost, which is what you give up in terms of good Y. Finally, you assess the new production point on the PPC to see how this change affects overall production. For example, if moving resources allows you to produce 10 more units of good X but reduces good Y by 5 units, your opportunity cost is 5 units of good Y for the 10 units of good X.
