Public goods, or collective consumption goods, exhibit two properties;
non-rivalry and non-excludability. Something is non-rivaled if one
person's consumption of it does not deprive another person, (to a point)
a firework display is non-rivaled - since one person watching a
firework display does not prevent another person from doing so.
Something is non-excludable if its use cannot be limited to a certain
group of people. Again, since one cannot prevent people from viewing a
firework display it is non-excludable.
Conceptually, another example of public good is the service that is
provided by law enforcement organizations, such as sheriffs and police.Typically, cities and towns are served by only one police department,
and the police department serves all of the people within its
jurisdiction.
ublic economics (or economics of the public sector) is the study of government policy through the lens of economic efficiency and equity.
At its most basic level, public economics provides a framework for
thinking about whether or not the government should participate in
economic markets and to what extent it should do so. In order to do
this, microeconomic theory is utilized to assess whether the private market
is likely to provide efficient outcomes in the absence of governmental
interference. Inherently, this study involves the analysis of government taxation and expenditures. This subject encompasses a host of topics including market failures, externalities, and the creation and implementation of government policy. Public economics builds on the theory of welfare economics and is ultimately used as a tool to improve social welfare.
Broad methods and topics include:
Emphasis is on analytical and scientific methods and normative-ethical analysis, as distinguished from ideology. Examples of topics covered are tax incidence, optimal taxation, and the theory of public goods.

Answer: When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not have.
The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.
To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
