Document Summary

At the beginning of the semester we discussed four types of economic goods. These included: public goods, private goods, common goods (or common property resources), and club goods. If a good is non-rival in consumption then: one individuals consumption of the good does not affect the amount available for others to consume. Of the four types of economic goods discussed at the beginning of the semester, which are non- rival and excludable in consumption? club goods. If a market is perfectly (or purely) competitive, then: the good that is produced and traded is homogenous or standardized, there are large numbers of independently acting buyers and sellers. In moving up or down along a downward sloping (or negatively sloped) individual or market demand curve for a good: all non-price determinants of demand (i. e. , factors other than the price of the good) are held constant.
