Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

should specialize in the production of goods for which they have a lower opportunity cost of production than their trading partners

Explanation:

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

For example, country A produces 10kg of beans and 5kg of rice. Country B produces 5kg of beans and 10kg of rice.  

for country A,  

opportunity cost of producing beans = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing rice = 10/5 = 2

for country B,  

opportunity cost of producing rice = 5/10 = 0.5

opportunity cost of producing beans = 10/5 = 2

Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of beans and country B has a comparative advantage in the production of rice

Country A should specialise in the production of beans and B  should specialise in the production of rice
