Cashews and Mushrooms Production
                                                       You                                                  Neighbor 
                                         Cashews        Mushrooms             Cashews          Mushrooms 
Only gather cashews:      12 pounds          0 pounds                 5 pounds            0 pounds 
Only gather mushrooms:    0 pounds          6 pounds                 0 pounds            5 pounds 
 Right now, you each split your time between gathering each product. You currently gather and consume eight pounds of cashews and two pounds of mushrooms, while your neighbor is gathering and consuming three pounds of cashews and one pound of mushrooms.
