Which of the following is not an example of a public good?

A. all-you-can-eat buffet

B. concert in public parks

C. police protection

D. public TV and radio

Expert Solution

Answer: A. all-you-can-eat buffet.

Police protection, concerts in a public park, and public TV/ratio all are public goods since the government doesn't stop anyone from receiving the benefits, and one person receiving the benefits does not stop others from receiving them too. An all-you-can-eat buffet is excludable as a restaurant can stop someone from coming in if they don't pay. Also, one person eating the food means there is less food for others.
