Still don't get...businesses don't trade anymore, how would that work with currency in these day n age? Businesses don't trade one product for another anymore....how would that work with money? Mula?
In the production of coconut, Fred's work is ten times as productive as Harry, thus Fred could exchange for 10 hours work of Harry's by selling him coconut. Now what can Harry produce in the 10 hours' service he has offered Fred? its 10 times the 25 units papaya he can produce per hour, 100 units more than what can Fred produce. Yet I think we have to note that the has to be 10 "Fred" in the market place to trade with "Harry" in this way than "Harry" can achieve (1+100/150)*100% efficiency
I'm confused, it seems to me that the altogether production of papayas would only be 50 whereas before it was 150... (if Fred chooses to specialize in coconuts only)
Comparative advantage made simple...
