Homework Answers
The answer is True
Government spending and taxation are not the only way of providing public goods. For certain cases, public goods may be produced from markets. Think of radio for example. It is not removed, because it would be very difficult to stop anyone from receiving it while the radio signal is being transmitted. It's nonrivalous, as one person listening to the signal often doesn't preclude anyone from listening. Because of these features, direct charging of listeners to traditional radio broadcasts is practically impossible. By selling ads, which is an indirect way of "paying" listeners by taking up some of their time, radio has found a way to gain money. Ultimately, customers who purchase the branded products often pay for the radio service, because the promotional costs are incorporated into the cost of the product.
