Answer:

France should specialize in producing phones and import computers from Sweden

Explanation:

France can produce: 4 phones or 3 computers

The opportunity cost of producing 1 phone = (3 ÷ 4)

                                                                        = 0.75 computers

The opportunity cost of producing 1 computer = (4 ÷ 3)

                                                                        = 1.33 phones

Sweden can produce: 1 phone or 2 computers

The opportunity cost of producing 1 phone = (2 ÷ 1)

                                                                        = 2 computers

The opportunity cost of producing 1 computer = (1 ÷ 2)

                                                                        = 0.5 phones

According to the comparative advantage,

Sweden has a comparative advantage in producing computers because the opportunity cost of producing computers is lower for Sweden than for France.

France has a comparative advantage in producing phones because the opportunity cost of producing phones is lower for France than for Sweden and import computers from Sweden because Sweden has a comparative advantage in producing computers.

The classic quote from the movie Field of Dreams, "If you build (produce] it
-BARSIC- [3]

The correct answer is A. Say's Law

Explanation:

Say's Law proposed by the economist Jean-Baptiste Say establishes the supply (availability of a product) or the production itself is the factor that creates demand (customers willing to buy the product). For example, the production of a new model of cellphone or computer makes people want to buy the new model. This idea is expressed by the quote "If you build (produce] it  they will come [purchase]" because in the quote it is explained the production of something make people go to buy that product.
