Answer:
If Mary and Tim specialize in the good in which they have a comparative advantage, ______.
Mary would specialize in making cakes while Tim would specialize in making pies.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Mary's opportunity cost of making a cake = 2 pies
She can make additional 5 (10/2) cakes instead of making pies
This will increase her cakes to 25 a day (20 + 5)
Tim's opportunity cost of making a cake = 4 pies
She can make additional 40 pies (10 * 4) instead of making cakes
This will increase her pies to 60 pies a day (20 + 40)
When they specialize there will be 25 cakes and 60 pies produced in a day instead of 30 cakes and 30 pies.

The answer, therefore is false.
