Three customers bought identical cellular phones this morning from Phil's Phone Shop. Amy bought one to call her mom and boyfriend. Brad's boss sent him to buy one to use to keep in touch with the office when he is out of his office. The local city

government had Cecilia, the town manager, buy one to receive calls while in the field. What are the different types of good classifications between the three cellular phones? Where will these purchases be recorded in GDP?

Amy's phone is a consumption good; Brad's is a capital good; and Cecilia's is a government good. The
purchase of Amy's phone will be included in consumption expenditures, Brad's in gross private domestic
investment, and Cecilia's in government purchases.
