Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
A cup of coffee bought at a restaurant is a final good or service because it is purchased for direct consumption by the consumer. The other options (bricks, wheat, steel, and a used car) are intermediate goods, which are purchased for the purpose of further production or resale.
