Answer #1

The correct answer is option C ie., Cable television is excludable and Air traffic control is not excludable.

Any person who has a cable television can exclude any person from using the services. Although the availability of the good will not reduce. These types of goods are called as impure public goods.

Air Traffic Control is a pure public good which has both non excludablity and non rivalness as his main characterstics.
