CHAPTER 2: Trade-Offs, Comparative Advantage, and the Market System 11 of 21 Trade Absolute Advantage Versus Comparative Advantage Absolute advantage The ability of an individual, firm, or country to produce more of a good or service than competitors using the same amount of resources. Comparative advantage The ability of an individual, firm, or country to produce a good or service at a lower opportunity cost than other producers. Opportunity cost of picking 1 pound of apples Opportunity cost of picking 1 pound of cherries You1 pound of cherries1 pound of apples Your neighbor2 pounds of cherries.5 pound of apples Don’t Confuse Absolute Advantage and Comparative Advantage

CHAPTER 2: Trade-Offs, Comparative Advantage, and the Market System 12 of 21 Trade Comparative Advantage and the Gains from Trade The basis for trade is comparative advantage, not absolute advantage. A country has a comparative advantage in the production of the good for which it has a lower opportunity cost. To enjoy the gains from trade, a country should specialize in the production of the good for which it has a comparative advantage.
