Example of an Excludable Public Good: Film in an Uncrowded Cinema
A film screening in a cinema with ample available seating is a type of excludable public good. It is non-rival because the cost to the cinema does not increase if an additional person watches the film. However, it is excludable because the owner can require the purchase of a ticket to grant admission. [1, 2]
