Answer:

This month, the economy experienced a change in the opportunity cost of producing pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

Opportunity cost is the forgone cost of doing a particular activity.

The economy produces 100 pizzas and 10 tables. Of opportunity cost of producing pizza had changed then the number of tables produced would have been a lot more a lot less.

However the trend before was still notched as an increase in pizza resulted in proportional increase in table production to 125 pizzas and 15 tables.
