Unit 6 Chapter 18 Public Goods

I. Characteristics of Goods a) Excludable: Supplier can prevent people who do not pay for it from consuming it. b) Rival in Consumption: Same unit of a good cannot be consumed by more than one person at a time. IF A GOOD MEETS BOTH OF THESE CHARACTERISTICS IT IS A PRIVATE GOOD

I. Characteristics of Goods c) Nonexcludable: supplier of product cannot prevent consumption by people who do not pay for it. d) Nonrival in Consumption: more than one person can consume the same unit of the good at the same time. GOOD THAT MEET THESE TWO CHARACTERISTICS ARE CALLED PUBLIC GOODS.

II. Summary of different types of goods There are four types of goods:  Private goods, which are excludable and rival in consumption, like wheat  Public goods, which are nonexcludable and nonrival in consumption, like a public sewer system  Common resources, which are nonexcludable but rival in consumption, like clean water in a river  Artificially scarce goods, which are excludable but nonrival in consumption, like pay-per-view movies on cable TV

Non- excludable Excludable Rival in consumptionNonrival in consumption Private goods Wheat Bathroom fixtures Artificially scarce goods Pay-per-view movies Computer software Public goods Public sanitation National defense Common resources Clean water Biodiversity

If there was no government, how would schools, parks, and freeways be different? Would there be enough to meet our needs? Public Goods 6

The Free Rider Problem: People that benefit from something without paying for it. 7 Examples: 1.People who download music illegally 2.People who watch a street performer and don’t pay 3.Teenagers that live at home and don’t have a job

What’s wrong with this picture? 8

9 Canadian Military Spending: $21.8 Billion US Military Spending: $660 Billion Why doesn’t Canada spend more on their military? Does anyone free ride off you?

The Final Exam I am willing to give a 100% on the final exam to whichever class gives me $1000. Everyone in the class will get 100% even if they don’t pay. Who is willing to pay? What about those that refuse to pay? Solution? EVERYONE pays a mandatory tax and all receive the same benefits. 10

Identify which of the following are TRUE public goods (have non-exclusion and non-rival consumption): 1. Hamburgers 2. Satellite TV 3. Free Public Education 4. Homes 5. Street lights 11

How do we decide how many public goods we need? 12

How does the government determine what quantity of public goods to produce? They use Supply and Demand Demand for Public Goods- The Marginal Social Benefit of the good determined by citizens willingness to pay. Supply of Public Goods- The Marginal Social Cost of providing each additional quantity.

Demand for a New Park Marginal willingness to pay higher taxes # of Parks Adam is willing to pay Jill is willing to pay Society’s Demand for Parks Marginal Cost 1$4$5$9$5 2$3$4$7$5 3$2$3$5 4$1$2$3$5 5$0$1 $5 Assume: 1.There are only two people in society. 2.Each additional park costs $5 How many parks should be made?
