Answer:

Thailand:

Opportunity cost of computers = 300/20 = 15 tons of rice

US:

Opportunity cost of computers = 800/100 = 8 tons of rice

US has a comparative advantage in production of computers

Absence of trade:

Thailand consumes 150 tons of rice, it can consume = (300 - 150)/30 x 2 = 10 computers

US consumes 50 computers, it can consume = 400 tons of rice

After trade :

10 computers exchanged for 120 tons of rice

Thailand continues to consume 150 tons of rice, it will consume = 12 computers (=10 + 30/15)

US continues to consume 50 computers, it will consume = 440 tons of rice (=120 + 40 x 8)

Both would accept the proposal as both are better off with trade
