Definitions: Absolute and Comparative Advantage | If the nation wishes to produce more cheese, then because labor resources are scarce and fully employed, it is necessary to move labor out of wine production in order to increase cheese production.

Definitions: Absolute and Comparative Advantage | Hence it is the opportunity cost of cheese production (in terms of wine).

Definitions: Absolute and Comparative Advantage | Thus the US has a comparative advantage in cheese production relative to France if: This means that the US must give up less wine to produce another pound of cheese than France must give up to produce another pound.
