The Adams lot (236A) is adjacent to the state road and the Braun lot (2368) is immediately behind it. Access to 2368 is provided for in an easement under which the owner of 236A must allow free passage to occupants of all inned lots. Adams already has a house on lot A and has resided there for ve years. Upon construction of the house, Adams also caused a road to be prepared, running from Route 116 to the back border of his lot. The road is not hard- surfaced, but is a type of "oiled gravel" surface common to private roads and driveways in rural areas. This kind of surface is subject to erosion and general deterioration over time. However, Pitts Gravel will come and provide any number of "doses" of road repair at a price of $25 per dose. [The concept of a "dose" of an input is a pedagogical simplication that will be utilized a number of times below. It is used to collapse a heterogeneous, multidimensional package of possible adjustments to a single dimension. Hence "road repair" could be a mix of many different services in varying proportions, but no useful purpose is served by explicitly considering multidimensional adjustments. Through the simplication of road repaid into "close" we can focus on a straightforward quantitative adjustment] *Note: the cost of each individual dose is $25, so 2 doses would cost in total $50, 3 doses cost $75, etc. Fortunately, we just happen to be in possession of Adams' true subjective evaluations of how much different levels of road repair are "worth" to him. Column 2 of the Table below shows his total value of the services received from the road, assuming different levels of maintenance, i.e., different quantities of doses. Note that these values are "gross" of any costs incurred in purchasing the maintenance
