Слайд 4Even if a country had a considerable absolute advantage in

the production of both goods, Ricardo would argue that specialization

and trade are still mutually beneficial.

Principle of Comparative Advantage

WHY?

Even if a country had a considerable absolute advantage in the production of both goods, Ricardo would

Слайд 5Basic assumptions:
Only two nations and two commodities;
Free trade;
Labor theory of

value;
Absence of transportation costs;
Labor is perfectly mobile within a country

but it is perfectly immobile within countries;
Constant cost of production;
Full employment of labor;
Technology remains unchanged.

Principle of Comparative Advantage

Basic assumptions:Only two nations and two commodities;Free trade;Labor theory of value;Absence of transportation costs;Labor is perfectly mobile

Слайд 7Countries should specialize in producing those goods in which they

have the lowest opportunity costs or greatest comparative advantage
Countries with

higher opportunity costs of production should import from a lower opportunity cost country.

Principle of Comparative Advantage

Countries should specialize in producing those goods in which they have the lowest opportunity costs or greatest

Слайд 8Explanation of the theory: example
Input (labor) requirements per unit of

output
A is 2 (4/2) times more efficient in production of

Cheese
than B

A is 10 (10/1) times more efficient in production of Wine
than B

Export

Explanation of the theory: example Input (labor) requirements per unit of outputA is 2 (4/2) times more

Слайд 9Output per 100 units of input (labor)
Explanation of the theory:

example
Opportunity costs - the loss of output of a commodity

brought out by an increase in the production of another commodity.

Countries with higher opportunity costs of production should import from a lower opportunity cost country.

Output per 100 units of input (labor)Explanation of the theory: example Opportunity costs - the loss of

Слайд 12When countries specialize in producing the goods in which they

have a comparative advantage, they maximize their combined output and

allocate their resources more efficiently

Gains from trade

Trade makes it possible to trespassing the national production possibility frontier

When countries specialize in producing the goods in which they have a comparative advantage, they maximize their

The prices of both goods will adjust

in a way that the trade is balanced:
(The value of

imports equals the value of exports)

about the best possible outcome because labour is distributed most

effectively and most economically
