What are Excludable Goods?

An excludable good can be limited in terms of who can and access the good. Excludability is generally on a scale. That is, there are varying degrees to which the producer, owner, or governing body of a good may selectively limit access to or consumption of the goods. 

What is a Rivalrous Good? 

A rivalrous good is a finite good. That is, if one person is accessing, using, or consuming the good, it limits the ability for a second party to access, use or consume that good.
