Based on the information in the scenario, describe the absolute and comparative advantage held by each worker in Hector’s office.

Give your answer in the form of at least three sentences.

In an office, every employee has an absolute and comparative advantage depending on the type of work he/she is best at.

In Hector's office, the employee Sasha worked as a computer designer and was excellent in her work. This means that the employee Sasha had an absolute  and comparative advantage as she was efficient in her work and hence, there was no opportunity cost of her side of work.

The employee, Maurice was best in logo designing. Hence, he had a absolute and comparative advantage as he was good in logo designing and their was no other opportunity cost for his work.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
