Consider two neighboring island countries called Felicidad and Arcadia. They each have 4 million labor hours available per month that they can use to produce jeans, rye, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of jeans or rye that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Jeans Rye (Pairs per hour of labor) (Bushels per hour of labor) Felicidad 8 32 Arcadia 12 24 Initially, suppose Arcadia uses 1 million hours of labor per month to produce rye and 3 million hours per month to produce jeans, while Felicidad uses 3 million hours of labor per month to produce rye and 1 million hours per month to produce jeans. Consequently, Arcadia produces 8 million bushels of rye and 48 million pairs of jeans, and Felicidad produces 15 million bushels of rye and 20 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. Felicidad's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is of rye, and Arcadia's opportunity cost of producing 1 pair of jeans is of rye. Therefore, has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans, and has a comparative advantage in the production of rye. 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 jeans will produce millions pairs per month, and the country that produces rye will produce millions bushels per month.
