When a country has a comparative advantage in the production of a good, it means that it can
produce this good at a lower opportunity cost than its trading partner. Then the country will
specialize in the production of this good and trade it for other goods. The following graphs show
the production possibilities frontiers (PPFs) for Yosemite and Denali. Both countries produce corn
and lentils, each initially (i.e., before specialization and trade) producing 24 million pounds of corn
and 12 million pounds of lentils, as indicated by the grey stars marked with the letter A.Yosemite
has a comparative advantage in the production of while Denall has a comparative advantage in
the production of . Suppose that Yosemite and Denall speciallze in the production of the goods in
which each has a comparative advantage. After specialization, the two countries can produce a
total of tentils, Suppose that Yosemite and Denall agree to trade. Each country focuses its
resources on prodising only the good in which it has a comparative advantage. The countries
decide to exchange 8 milion pounds of corn for 8 milion pounds of lentils. This ratio of goods is
known as the price of trade between Yosemite and Denall. The following graph shows the same
ppf for Yosemite as before, as welf as ics initial consumption at point A. PXace a black point ( ius
symbol) an the graph to indicate Yosemite's consumption after trade. Note: Dashed drop lines will

Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. The felowing graph shows the same
PPF for Denali as before, as well as its initial consumption ot point A.As you did for Yosemite,
place a black point (plus symbol) on the following graph to indicate Denalls consumption after
trade. True or False: without engaging in international trade, Yosemite and Denal would not have
been able to consume at the after-trade consumption bundies, (Hint: fase this question on the
