A country that has a comparative advantage is able to produce a product with lower opportunity cost. It doesn’t matter that its competitor has a notorious advantage in their production system.

The other options of the question were, b) Econoland has a comparative advantage in producing plywood, c) Arcadonian has an absolute advantage in the production of both crab and plywood, and d) Econoland should specialize in producing plywood and trade them with Arcadonia for crab.
