2 AnswersInvesting1 decade agoEconomics question??????
True or False: Countries should, without any hesitation, produce far more than enough capital goods to replace the existing capital that wears out. Assume that only consumer or capital goods can be produced, and that the economy operates on, rather than inside, its production possibilities schedule.
I thought it was true b/c the curve will shift rightward and there will be an increase in production of capital goods, but then I'm not sure.
