I don't understand the answer in part b. For Moonited Republic,
10w=4c To find the cost of 1w, divide both sides by 10 and we get
1w=.4c, but the answer says 1c=.4w. I don't understand why they
flipped the numbers.
Step 2 of 6 A b. Moonited Republic has a comparative advantage in cheese. The opportunity cost of producing a kilogram of cheese is 0.4 (= 4/10) bottles of wine in Moonited Republic, while the opportunity of a kilo of...

Consider a two countries, Portugal and England, that produce two goods, wine and cheese, with only one factor of production, Labor. In England, one unit of labor can produce 2 units of wine or 1 unit of cheese. In Portugal, one unit of labor can produce 3 units of wine or 1/2 of cheese. There are 100 units of labor in Portugal, and 100 in England. Countries share the same tastes, and there is perfect competition. 1) Fill in the...
