Best Answer

ON a federal return the standard deduction for 2005 is $ 5,000.00 and single, $10,000 married filing joint and $7,300.00 for head of household. You would have to have more this for it to help. State vary by states. So, if your intemized deductions are more than the base amount for the year given to anyone, it is better to do so.

What are the four things shown on the production possibility curve?

The production possibility curve is a graph that shows the combinations of two goods that a firm or a nation can create. On the X axis is one good, and on the Y axis is another good. The curve itself shows the combination of goods at maximum efficiency. This curve implies that anything above the curve cannot be produced. If production is inside the curve then the firm or individual is being inefficient and not producing to maximum capacity. If the curve is a straight line this implies that there are no diminishing returns, that no matter how much you produce one good the firm or individual will always produce the same number of goods. The slope of a straight production possibility curve is the opportunity costs of those goods; as an individual or firm decreases the time to produce one good it is able to increase the time to produce the other good. This is compared to a bowed curve which implies diminishing returns. Diminishing returns implies that the returns to labor decrease as a firm or individual produces more of a certain good. This is the concept of the low hanging fruit principle, it takes less time to produce initially because the firm or individual picks the lowest hanging fruit first and then as the number of low hanging fruits dissipates it takes more effort and labor to pick the harder to get fruits. A curve can also imply the diversity of skills in a given population. If we assume that the low hanging fruit principle doesn't exist, we cannot assume that all people in a population will be equally good at a certain task. In order to produce more of a given product a firm will first hire the best individuals for the task and then inevitably will have to hire individuals that are worse at the job, reducing the returns for a given person.
