s 40 resources to produce 1 ton of cocoa and 20 resources to produce 1 ton of rice. Lurnee has a comparative advantage over South Tyberg in cocoa.

A. We have assumed that agrarian nations do not specialize in producing particular products.
B. We have assumed the prices of resources and exchange rates in the two countries are dynamic.
C. We have assumed diminishing returns to specialization.

Answer: We have assumed constant returns to scale.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage simply stated that an economy should produce the goods whereby the said economy has a lower opportunity cost than its counterpart.

Based on the analysis in the question, the inaccurate assumption is that we have assumed constant returns to scale. This means that an increase in the inputs such as capital and labour which are used in producction will also cause an identical increase in output. In reality, this isn't always true.

The Republic of South Africa exports edible fruits and nuts into the common market known as the European Union, and imports from
Ugo [173]

Answer:

C) The theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

The theory of Comparative Advantage is a theory of international trade and it comes into effect in a situation where the <u>opportunity cost of producing a good or offering by a service by a country is lower than that of other countries. </u>

Specifically, to understand the theory of comparative advantage the opportunity cost of production or offering a service has to be measured in terms of the trade off between those countries. It simply means when a country has the comparative advantage then it derives more benefits from other countries buying its products as compared to buying their products and vice versa.

In the question, the European Union has the Comparative advantage over South Africa because the trade-off between buying South Africa's edible fruits and nuts and selling other products to South Africa benefits the European countries.

European countries derive more benefits because South Africa buys their goods at a cost higher than it takes them to produce while they buy at the normal cost from South Africa. The <u>trade-off benefits Europe </u>
