Answer:

d. I and II only.

Explanation:

If a night shift is added, then total production output should increase (that is the whole idea of adding that extra hours of production time).

Economic growth will increase because even though capital is the same (the same factory), other production factors will be new, e.g. labor and land (materials).

The production possibilities frontier should shift outward, i.e. it should expand. The shift will not happen along the existing curve.
