Absolute advantage / Comparative Advantage
In economics, the principle of: absolute advantage refers to the ability of a party (or country) to produce
more of a good or service than competitors, using the same amount of resources.
comparative advantage refers to the ability of a party (or country) to produce a particular good or service at a lower marginal and opportunity cost over another
Even if one country is more efficient in the production of all goods (absolute
advantage in all goods) than the other, both countries will still gain by trading with each other, as long as they have different relative efficiencies
-
