AP MicroeconomicsSupply & Demand
Substitute Goods
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of each other to satisfy a particular need or want.
When the price of one good increases, the demand for its substitute also increases, as consumers switch to the relatively cheaper alternative. Examples include Coke and Pepsi, or butter and margarine.
