Homework Answers
Ans)option b). According to the theory of comaparative advantage a trade is possible between two countries when one country has an absolute advantage in the production of both commodities but a comparative advantage in the production of one commodity than in other.As in the above example Pestoland produces both the goods pasta and pesto with more labour efficiency because of high labour productivity.Option b.) is correct for pestoland as it has comparative advantage because OA units of paesto produce by pestoland and OB is the pasta produce and similarly OC is the units of pesto produced by pastaland and OD is the units of pasta produced by pastaland.Clearly second option says
OA/OB <OC/OD rearranging it For comparison of comparitive cost advantage
OA/OC<OB/OD that is pestoland has less comparitive cost of production of pesto fraction OA/OC cost of production of pesto with respect to pastaland is less than OB/OD that is comaprarive cost of production of pasta with comparating to pastaland.
