Explanation:

Calvin can make decals faster and Hobbs can make chains faster. In other words, we can say that Calvin has a comparative advantage in making decals, while, Hobbs has a comparative advantage in making chains.

This means that Calvin has a low opportunity cost for producing decals and Hobbs has low opportunity cost for producing chains.
