Answer:

has a comparative advantage in producing good 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared with other countries. Country abc has a comparative advantage because it sacrifices fewer quantities of good 2.

Country abc should specialise in production of good 1, while country xyz should import from country abc.

A country has an absolute advantage in the production of a good or service If it produces more quantity of the good compared with other countries.

I hope my answer helps you
