Answer: B

Country b has a comparative advantage in producing DVDs

In the given example, we can see that country A will have to give up 1 CD to produce 1 DVD

(100/100) 100 divided by 100

But country B has to give up just 0.25 CDs to produce 1 DVD hence, country B is enjoying a comparative advantage in the production of DVDs
