LOCKOUT: A plant or factory that is closed temporarily, because it's owners are trying to gain a negotiating advantage over the employees' union. A lockout is commonly used by a company's management if they suspect the union is planning to strike. A lockout by management before the union strikes is much like a pre-emptive military attach that tries to hit the enemy hard, fast, and first.

Opportunity cost is greater as we produce more calibrators. Why?- The law of increasing opportunity cost which says that the opportunity cost of producing a good increases as more and more of the good is produced.
- 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.
