Maldonia has a comparative advantage in the production of
sugar
while Lamponia has a comparative advantage in the
production of
grain.
Suppose that Maldonia and Lamponia specialize in the production of the goods in which each has a
comparative advantage. After specialization, the two countries can produce a total of
48 million pounds of sugar and
48 million pounds of
grain.
Suppose that Maldonia and Lamponia agree to trade. Each country focuses its resources on producing only the good in which it has a comparative
advantage. The countries decide to exchange 24 million pounds of grain for 24 million pounds of sugar. This ratio of goods is known as the priçe of
trade between Maldonia and Lamponia.
