5. The price of trade Suppose that Hungary and Luxembourg both produce boots and wheat. Hungary's opportunity cost of producing a bushel of wheat is 5 pairs of boots while Luxembourg's opportunity cost of producing a bushel of wheat is 9 pairs of boots. By comparing the opportunity cost of producing wheat in the two countries, you can tell that production of wheat and has a comparative advantage in the production of boots. has a comparative advantage in the Suppose that Hungary and Luxembourg consider trading wheat and boots with each other. Hungary can gain from specialization and trade as long as it receives more than of boots for each bushel of wheat it exports to Luxembourg.
