Comparative advantage is the ability of a person to produce a good at a lower opportunity cost compared to another person. A lower opportunity cost means that the person gives up less to produce the good compared to another person. For example, one person may need to give up one hour of typing to get dinner made while another person must give up two hours of typing to produce the same dinner.
