	Inferior good - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In consumer theory, an inferior good is a good that decreases in demand when the consumer's income rises, unlike normal goods, for which the opposite is observed.
		As a rule, used and obsolete goods (but not antiques!) marketed to persons of low income as closeouts are inferior goods at the time even if they had earlier been normal goods or even luxury goods.
		Good X is an inferior good since the amount bought decreases from X1 to X2 as income increases.

	Common good - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The common good is often regarded as a utilitarian ideal, thus representing "the greatest possible good for the greatest possible number of individuals".
		Another definition of the common good, as the quintessential goal of the State, requires an admission of the individual's basic right in society, which is, namely, the right of everyone to the opportunity to freely shape his life by responsible action, in pursuit of virtue and in accordance with the moral law.
		Some assert that promoting the common good is the goal of democracy (in the sphere of politics) and socialism (in the sphere of economics).

	Substitute good - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In economics, one kind of good (or service) is said to be a substitute good for another kind insofar as the two kinds of goods can be consumed or used in place of one another in at least some of their possible uses.
		The fact that one good is substitutable for another has immediate economic consequences: insofar as one good can be substituted for another, the demand for the two kinds of good will be bound together by the fact that customers can trade off one good for the other if it becomes advantageous to do so.
		One good is a perfect substitute for another only if it can be used in exactly the same way, at exactly the same cost, and with exactly the same quality of outcome; that is, when there is no particular incentive for a customer to prefer one over the other.

	Money
		Money is any marketable good or token used by a society as a medium of exchange, store of value and unit of account.
		When the value of a good is frequently used to measure or compare the value of other goods or where its value is used to denominate debts then it is functioning as a unit of account.
		A debt or an IOU can not serve as a unit of account because its value is specified by comparison to some external reference value, some actual unit of account that may be used for settlement.

	Diminishing Marginal Utility 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Thus, if a good is scarce, the average person consumes only a little of it, and the marginal utility is (relatively) high.
		If the good is plentiful, the average person will have more of it, and so the marginal utility will be (relatively) low.
		Of course, it was known that a person will pay more for a scarce good, and that's a matter of "common sense." But that "common sense" fact didn't sit well with Smith's idea of a "natural price" -- it seemed to be an exception of some sort.

	Economics 201 Multiple-Choce Q1
		Land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship are the factors of production, but they are also scarce and they are goods because they provide utility or satisfaction.
		Among the rationing devices, only price has the advantage of ensuring that scarce goods are allocated to those who value them most.
		A good is scarce when more of the good would be demanded at a zero price (free) than would be supplied at a zero price; hence, a scarce good necessitates choice and an allocation problem because not everyone will be able to have as much as they want.

		It is concerned with the transformation of inputs into outputs, that is goods and services by means of production, and with the distribution of the final product to the human beings who take part in the economy, that is, to economic agents.
		To illustrate graphically, consider an economy in which two goods are produced: X and Y. If the economy uses all its resources in the production of good X, it can produce only a finite amount, say, Xbar.
		As long as there is scarcity, scarce goods must be rationed in some way among human beings competing for them.
