Question

______ is a single use consumer good.

Options

• Television

• Crockery

• Milk

• Sugarcane purchased by a sugar mill

Answer 1

Milk is a single use consumer good.

Explanation:

Such goods are used only once by consumers and cannot be reused. 

Their utility is finished or destroyed immediately upon consumption.

Other examples of single use consumer goods include fruits, biscuits, bread, cooking gas, vegetables, etc. 

In contrast, items like (a) television are durable consumer goods, (b) crockery is a semi-durable consumer good and (d) sugarcane purchased by a sugar mill is an intermediate good used in production, not a consumer good. 

Hence, milk is the best example of a single use consumer good.
