The Ricardian theory of comparative advantage states that relative labor productivity determines trade advantage. In other words that the international difference in comparative advantage is due to relative labor productivity, and mostly technological differences between nations with some nations able to produce more than others due to their technological advantage. All other factors are assumed to be similar across the countries. The Ricardian model also argues that a country shows better profit in trade in those sectors where its productivity advantage is greater than its wage disadvantage or where its wage advantage is greater than its productivity disadvantage. Using algorithmic features, the model, in other words, argues that letting ai represent unit labor requirements, for sector b in country j: ai = Lb/Qjt where Q = the added value L = labor employment. The marginal products of labor, therefore results of labor, are supposed to be consistent with variations in labor/ technology. All are intertwined and conjoined. The competitiveness of the sector i in country j compared with another country also depends on the pitch of its wages as well as the bilateral exchange rate which determines the relative labor unit cost that is determined by that country's specific currency.
