Haberler's theory of opportunity cost explains the principle of comparative advantage, sometimes referred to as the principle of comparative cost. It suggests that when a country increases the production of one good, it must decrease the production of another good. The theory focuses on the value of the next best alternative that is forfeited when a choice is made.
