Correct Option: B
The principle of comparative cost states that;
international trade takes place between two countries when the ratios of comparative cost of producing goods differ, and each country would specialise in producing that commodity in which it has a comparative advantage.
Comparative cost advantage is when a country produces a good or service for a lower opportunity cost than other countries.
