Final goods are goods that are sold to consumers. This can be contrasted with intermediate goods that are used to produce other goods. All goods consumed and used by consumers are final goods. Anything consumed by a business isn't a final good. Parts and components that go into consumer products are intermediate goods. Services sold to consumers are counted as final goods. The following are common examples of final goods.
Appliances | Bicycles | Boats | Books | Cleaning Supplies | Clothing | Computers | Cookware & Tableware | Cosmetics | DIY Supplies | Electronics | Fast Moving Consumer Goods | Financial Services | Flights | Food | Furniture | Handbags | Hobby Supplies | Home Fixtures | Home Renovation | Homes | Hotels | Jewelry | Life Insurance | Media | Mobile Apps | Mobile Devices | Movies | Passenger Trains | Personal Services | Restaurants | Shoes | Sporting Equipment | Stationery | Streaming Media | Theme Parks | Toiletries | Tools | Vehicles | Video Games |
A house that's used as the owner's residence is a final good but the land the house sits on is capital. Land isn't consumed such that it isn't considered a good but is rather an asset. A home purchased to rent out is business capital and not a final good.
