The difference between a product and a commodity, the difference between a cargo and a product

1. They have different meanings.

Cargo is a specialized concept in the field of transportation in China. The transportation sector divides its business objects into two categories, one is people and the other is things"things"This category is collectively referred to as goods.

Commodities are the fruits of labor produced for the sake of the first, the products of the development of the productive forces of human society to a certain historical stage, and the products of labor used for exchange.

2. The value is different.

The definition of commodities in accounting is a variety of commodities purchased or commissioned by commodity circulation enterprises and used for sale in the warehouse. The definition in the Compulsory 1 Political Book of the People's Education Edition is the product of labor used for exchange. The basic attributes of a commodity are value and use value.

Goods refer to tangible movable property, including electricity, heat, and gas.

The product is biased towards the finished product produced by the production-oriented enterprise, which is called the product; Goods, on the other hand, tend to be business-oriented enterprises, and the goods purchased from outside are sold without any processing or simple processing such as outer packaging.

To put it simply: the product is the goods produced by the factory next to the general worker. (the name of the goods produced by the factory) town bridge.

A commodity is a general summary of the goods that have been sold in the market. (the term for the circulation of goods in the market of the factory).

A product is anything that can be provided to the market, used and consumed by people, and can satisfy a certain need of people, including tangible items, intangible services, organizations, ideas, or combinations thereof.

Commodities refer to all kinds of commodities purchased or commissioned by circulation enterprises and used for sale in the warehouse.

Differences: 1. Commodities in the economic sense refer to products that are specially used for exchange, that is, producers do not consume themselves, but use them to exchange other products they need to other producers. In the era of socialized mass production, almost all industrial products and the vast majority of agricultural products belong to commodities.

Commodities in the financial sense actually refer to commodities**, i.e., standardized commodity forward contracts.

2. The definition of a product is broader than that of a commodity.

A commodity must be a product of labor, and a product must have many properties of a commodity before it can become a commodity.

The specific explanation is as follows:

1. A commodity is or is a labor product that is useful to others or society or is used for exchange, therefore, the product needs to produce value to others or society and can be used for exchange in order to have the nature of a commodity;

2. Commodities are labor products that meet people's needs, so products need to meet the needs of others in order to have the nature of commodities;

3. Commodities are labor products that have been exchanged and are not in the process of use, therefore, commodities generally refer to labor products that have not been used and have the nature of commodities.

The product is the thing that is produced, and the commodity is the product of business relations. Money is a measure of the value of a commodity (determined by the time of the society), and it is also a commodity, or more so a commodity. Whether it is obtained by natural means (planting, breeding) or mechanical means (processing, transformation, creation), as long as it has the value of being used by people, it will become.

Commodity, heavy exchange rather than use, this is for those who make it and want to make a profit from it. And for those who buy it, the value is still important. It is this kind of use demand that merchants have the opportunity to exchange.

As a merchant, the merchant uses the efforts of the laborer to obtain the product and exchange it for the export of goods, and the profit is used to pay for machinery, raw materials, labor wages (which are variable and can never be measured fairly), etc., but the merchant's wealth is greatly increased, and this is the sweetness of the surplus value that the merchant tastes.

It is a product that is produced for one's own use and has a use value. It is commodities that are produced in exchange with others. It has the duality of use value and value.

Products must be produced by human labor, while commodities generally refer to all items bought and sold in the market. "It can not be produced by labor, such as tourism resources. The category of commodities is greater than the category of products.

The same are all commodities, and everything on the market is now available for sale, such as production materials, which can be purchased on the Internet! There is no difference between commodities and labor products, as long as someone wants to use it, then it is a commodity, and as long as someone buys it, then it has value!

Commodities are products that enter the circulation field for exchange, and those produced that are not used for exchange cannot be called commodities, such as Chinese cabbage grown at the farmer's home and eaten by himself, if the Chinese cabbage is sold in the market, it is a commodity.

The difference between a product and a commercial product is that a commodity is a product used for exchange, and the production of a commodity is for exchange, and when a product is buried in the process of use after exchange, it can no longer be called a commodity; Of course, if a product has a secondary exchange, then it can be called a commodity again.
