Understanding the Answer
Let's break down why this is correct
Answer
When we talk about absolute advantage, it means one country can produce more of a good than another country using the same resources. However, just because a country is better at making both cars and computers doesn't mean it should only focus on those products. Instead, it should look at comparative advantage, which is about producing goods at a lower opportunity cost. For example, if Country A can make 10 cars or 5 computers, while Country B can make 6 cars or 3 computers, Country A has an absolute advantage in both. But if Country A gives up fewer cars to make computers than Country B does, it should specialize in computers, allowing both countries to trade and benefit from their strengths.
Detailed Explanation
A country can still benefit from specializing. Other options are incorrect because This answer thinks that having an absolute advantage means no specialization is helpful.
