Answer to Question 1

An efficient outcome in this case can be achieved if Beth strikes a private deal with her neighbor convincing him to keep his pet indoors. Because Beth can earn 7,500 by renting out her house and her neighbor values keeping her pet outdoors at 1,500, total well-being can be increased if Beth pays her neighbor an amount between 1,500 and 7,500 to keep his pet indoors.

A
