  • In Country A it takes Xa units of resources to produce one unit of X and Ya units of resourcesto produce one unit of Y.
  • In Country B it takes Xb units of resources to produce one unit of X and Yb units of resourcesto produce one unit of Y.
  • Assume the amount of resources used to produce the goods in the two countries can becompared unambiguously.

TABLE 19-1

Refer to Table 19-1. If the ratio Xa/Ya is less than the ratio Xb/Yb, then we can say with certainty that


◦ Country A has a comparative advantage in the production of good X.
◦ The opportunity cost of producing good X in Country A is lower than in Country B.
◦ Country A has an absolute advantage in the production of good X.
◦ The opportunity cost of producing good X in Country A is higher than in Country B.
◦ The opportunity cost of producing good Y in Country A is less than in Country B.
