It is sometimes argued in editorials or TV commentaries that the modern wave of outsourcing, especially outsourcing of services to India, defies the logic of the Ricardian model. Let's examine if this is actually the case. The following table presents information on labor productivity in computer component production and call center services in Canada and India. Assume that Canada has an absolute advantage in both. To complete the following table, choose the number of calls that would be most plausible and consistent with the reality of outsourcing services to India, and indicate the good in which each country has a comparative advantage.

Yes No
