Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

This statement is not true. Comparative advantage is achieved by being able to produce a good or service at a lower opportunity cost than someone else can. Here the only information that we have is that the young man is more productive than the older man. This isn't sufficient information to conclude that he has a comparative advantage in the production of everything.
