1 is A because the PPF will shift inward if the labor force shrinks, the supply of raw materials is depleted, or a natural disaster strikes.
Shrinking of labour could also mean more machinery is being employed by Firms which will boost production.
4- Balancing social costs and benefits is the main objective in a Planned economy.Government will try to finish the negative externalities and bring in more positive externalities.
5-It must be limited in Supply because if there is no shortage, there will be no value of money and therefore people would stop trusting money as a source of payment.

In question 10
It says the equilibrium price is 2000 (from 4 units)

You can see the firm Z is 2 units short of equilibrium price so it would be the buyer and firm X has two surplus units so it would want to sell to reach the equilibrium point therefore the answer is D

"It also depends directly on the level of output of Firm Y."

Firm X does not participate in the output generation of firm Y, but it is still dependent on it. Firm X is bearing the consequences of firm Y's production activities => it is an externality for firm X.

A cannot be the answer, cause you are told the output depends, not the demand.
