      Also interesting, but maybe not relevant, that it wasn't disclosed if Anne was more productive due to her proximity to better fishing grounds or if they were living in the same area and she was simply a more skilled fisher.

    @333xebec 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I don't understand the end. Why does Bob get to raise his price to 3 fish per banana just because Ann became better at catching fish? Why can't Ann pay the same amount of 2 fish per banana and just get more bananas?

    • @santiagopicco1397
      @santiagopicco1397 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That depends on the size of the countries.Then Ann, with more fish, she would consume more bananas. But, since Bob's got the same production, the price would tend to rise.

    • @alexturlais8558
      @alexturlais8558 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Thats basic economics. If supply increases, price decreases if demand stays rhe same

  • @McRyach
    @McRyach 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What if Ann gets better at both, at the same time as Bob can catch One fish or One banana, Ann can catch Four fish or Two banana? Now it looks more like a comparative disadvantage for Bob.

    • @IonSterpan
      @IonSterpan 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes, there would still be benefits from trade. To understand comparative advantage we ask "When I do X, is the value of the opportunity I forgo smaller than the value of the opportunity you forgo when you do X? If it is, then I should do X."
      The value of the opportunity I forego is also called "opportunity cost".
      According to this principle, there would be benefits from trade even if Ann became so much better at both.
      In that scenario, Ann's opportunity cost of producing 4 fish (in terms of the other thing she can produce) is 2 bananas.
      Bob's opportunity cost of producing 4 fish is 4 bananas.
      Ann's opportunity cost of producing fish is smaller than Bob's, therefore she should only produce fish, and trade for the bananas she needs.
      If they do not trade, and you give them 2 hours, Ann produces 4 fish and 2 bananas, while Bob produces 1 fish and 1 banana. Total: 5 fish and 3 bananas.
      If Ann only fishes, Bob's collects bananas, and they trade, Ann produces 8 fish, and Bob 2 bananas. Total: 8 fish and 2 bananas.
      There is a 3 fish gain and a 1 banana loss, compared to the no trade scenario.
      IS this better overall? Yes, 3 fish are more valuable than 1 banana. This is because Ann can divert half hour from fish production to banana production. She thus forgoes 2 fish to collect 1 banana - the lost banana.
      But she is still left with one fish. So total production is greater.
