Answer Illustration : Opportunity Cost of producing Wine is lesser in France, Opportunity Cost of producing Sweaters is lesser in Tunisia. So, France has comparative advantage in Wine, Tunisia in Sweater.
Explanation:
Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone while choosing an alternative.
Opportunity Cost of producing Sweaters & Wine in France & Tunisia are quantities of other goods (Sweaters or Tunias) sacrifised while choosing either. Sweater Opportunity Cost - Wines sacrifised, Wine Opportunity Cost - Sweaters sacrifised.
The country has a comparative advantage in a good if it can produce it with relatively less opportunity cost (in terms of other good sacrifised) than other country.
Ex : Production Possibilities
Wine Sweater Trade off (Wine :Sweater)
France 10 5 1:0.5 or 2:1
Tunisia 8 24 1:3 or 0.33:1
France produces Wine with lesser opportunity cost (sweater sacrifised) than Tunisia [0.5 sweater < 3 sweaters] ; it has comparative advantage in Wine. Tunisia produces Sweater with less opportunity cost (wine sacrifised) than France [ 0.33 wine < 2 wines] ; it has comparative advantage in TunisiaОтвет:
