a) A complimentary want is a state where usage of a given good to satisfy human want gives rise the another good that is needed too for the want to be fully satisfied…the goods go in pairs for them to satisfy a given want. Example is a car cannot be useful to man when it has no fuel.


b) A habitual want is a state when a given consumer uses a specific good to satisfy a specific want for a long time, this want becomes part of him and he has to go for the specific good…i.e. habit. Example is smoking of cigarette
