Consider two neighboring island countries called Euphoria and Contente. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce rye, jeans, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of rye or jeans that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Rye Jeans(Bushels per hour of labor)(Pairs per hour of labor)Euphoria 520Contente 816 Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 3 million hours per week to produce jeans, while Euphoria uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce rye and 1 million hours per week to produce jeans. Consequently, Euphoria produces 15 million bushels of rye and 20 million pairs of jeans, and Contente produces 8 million bushels of rye and 48 million pairs of jeans. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of rye and jeans it produces. Euphoria's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is of jeans, and Contente's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is of jeans. Therefore, has a comparative advantage in the production of rye, and has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans. Suppose that each country completely specializes in the production of the good in which it has a comparative advantage, producing only that good. In this case, the country that produces rye will produce million bushels per week, and the country that produces jeans will producemillion pairs per week.
