Brazil has an advantage in terms of the amount each nation can produce in one day of both phones and shoes.

Explanation:

Brazilian footwear industry is as old as 1820s and to this day has maintained its hold over the footwear market as it is the third largest producer of shoes following China and India. USA however beats it out in making premium assembly line shoes.

In terms of phones, Brazil has a maker's advantage with cheaper and bigger workforce but overall USA is able to assemble more parts and make more phones than Brazil in the assembly line end of things due to better infrastructure and industry setting.
