  • The delegates agreed that the executive office should be comprised of a single individual elected for a fixed term, in which foreign affairs, control over the armed forces, and the appointment of federal officers (including supreme court judges) would be consigned.

• Demand for Public Goods

  • The aggregate demand for a public good is derived differently from the aggregate demand for private goods.
  • The marginal benefit of a public good diminishes as the level of the good provided increases.
  • Public goods are non-rivalrous, so everyone can consume each unit of a public good.
  • The aggregate demand for a public good is the sum of marginal benefits to each person at each quantity of the good provided .
  • Unlike public goods, society does not have to agree on a given quantity of a private good, and any one person can consume more of the private good than another at a given price.

• Defining a Good

  • Private goods: Private goods are excludable and rival.
  • Common goods: Common goods are non-excludable and rival.
  • Club goods: Club goods are excludable but non-rival.
  • This type of good often requires a "membership" payment in order to enjoy the benefits of the goods.
  • Public goods: Public goods are non-excludable and non-rival.

• Cross-Price Elasticity of Demand

  • For substitute goods, as the price of one good rises, the demand for the substitute good increases.
  • Conversely, the demand for a substitute good falls when the price of another good is decreased.
  • Two goods that complement each other have a negative cross elasticity of demand: as the price of good Y rises, the demand for good X falls.
  • Two goods that are substitutes have a positive cross elasticity of demand: as the price of good Y rises, the demand for good X rises.
  • Two goods that are independent have a zero cross elasticity of demand: as the price of good Y rises, the demand for good X stays constant.
