  • Third rule of inequality. All resources are not equally suited to produce all goods.
  • First calibrator (A to B) uses resources best suited for calibrators and least suited for shoes.
  • Tenth calibrator (J to K) uses resources least suited for calibrators and best suited for shoes.
  • As more of a good is produced and supplied, opportunity cost increases.
