Producer goods are all those goods which are used in the process of production i.e., which are used in the production of other goods.

Producer goods include two types of goods:

1. Single-use Producer Goods: Goods used as raw material by the producers. It includes raw material like coal, wood, etc. They are not capital goods as they cannot be repeatedly used in the production process.

2. Capital Goods: Goods which are used as fixed assets by the producers, like plant and machinery, which can be repeatedly used in the production process.

So, it can be said that all capital goods are producer goods, but all producer goods are not capital goods.
