COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE
COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE
Production of cloth and rice :
Cloth Rice Exchange rate
India 20 yd 40 ton 1 yd = 2 ton
1 ton = 0.5 yd
Indonesia 60 yd 48 ton 1 yd = 0.8 ton
1 ton = 1.25 yd
COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE
Production of cloth and rice :
Cloth Rice Gain
India 2 ton 0.5 yd
Indonesia 0.8 ton 1.25 yd
1.25 – 0.5 = 0.75 yd
2 – 0.8 = 1.2 ton
