• Card 19 / 25: Explain why an object only becomes a good when a person incorporates it into his plans.

    Answer:
    Something is a good not because of its physical properties, but because a person subjectively values it. If people didn't enjoy smoking, then tobacco would cease being a (production) good and would be the equivalent of a weed. A person values an object as a good because the person has a plan in which that object will help to achieve a goal. Sample Partial Credit Answer A person gives value to a good by thinking about it.
