Is it possible to have a comparative advantage in the production of a good but not to have an absolute advantage? Explain.
Country Jeans Corn Felicidad 8 32 Bellissima 12 24 Felicidad's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is (1/2 , 1/4, 2, 4) of corn, and Bellissima's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is ( 1/2 , 1/4, 2, 4) of corn. Therefore, (FELICIDADS, BELLISSIMA) has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans, (FELICIDADS, BELLISSIMA) and has a comparative advantage in the production of corn. Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces jeans will produce_______________million pairs per week, and the country that produces corn will produce____________million bushels per week.

There are two countries, Atlantis and Thule, and two goods, Clothing (C) and food (F) In Atlantis, it takes 3 units of labour to produce a unit of Clothing and 3 units of labour to make a unit of Food. In Thule, a unit of Clothing requires 2 units of labour, and a unit of Food requires 5 units of labour. Assume that Atlantis has 300 units of labour, and Thule has 500 units of labour. (a) What is the opportunity cost of Food in terms of Clothing in each country? (b) Which country has an absolute advantage in which good? (c) Which country has a comparative advantage in which good? Why? (d) Draw the production possibilities frontier for each country (put Food on the horizontal axis). Label axes and slopes.
