4) A good that can be consumed even if the consumer does not pay for it

A) is necessarily rival in consumption.

B) completely avoids the free rider problem.

B) To obtain the economy’s marginal benefit for a public good, the quantity that all individuals are willing to buy at each price must be added.

C) To obtain the economy’s marginal benefit curve for a public good, we sum the individual demand curves horizontally.

D) Because public goods are nonexcludable, the economy’s marginal benefit curve for a public good is the same as its marginal cost curve.
