Verified by Experts

A producer uses two types of goods or Producer goods include :
(i) Raw materials,
(ii) Fixed assets like plant and machinery.
The first type of producer goods (i.e., raw materials, like coal, wood, etc)., are not capital goods as they lose their identity in the production process. They are intermediate or single-use producer goods and cannot be used again in the production process. So, it can be said that all capital goods are producer goods, but all producer goods are not capital goods.
The second type i.e., fixed assets can be used repeatedly in the production process, hence they are capital goods.
