An economy produces two goods: cars and wheat. The boundary of its production possibilities is bowed-outward from the origin. Initially, the economy is using most of its resources to produce wheat and only a few cars. To produce the 10th car, the economy must give up 100 bushels of wheat. Based on the shape of the production boundary, what is the most likely opportunity cost of producing the 100th car?
