Answer to Question 1

A private good is characterized by the principle of rival consumption, which means that one person's consumption of a good reduces the amount available for someone else. A public good is not characterized by the principle of rival consumption. Public goods can be used by more people at no additional cost. Further, once the good is produced, it is usually impossible, or at the very least difficult, to exclude anyone from consuming it.

Answer to Question 2

B
