Ans) An individual will buy a beachfront parcel only if his/her willingness and ability to purchase >= minimum selling price of the beachfront parcel. Using this information, we can find from the given table that, Andrew, Sam and Teresa will be able to buy one of the three beachfront parcels.
For Andrew: willingness and ability to purchase ($4,20,000) > minimum selling price of the beachfront parcel ($4,00,000). So he will buy.
For Sam : willingness and ability to purchase ($5,50,000) > minimum selling price of the beachfront parcel ($4,00,000). So he will buy.
For Teresa: willingness and ability to purchase ($4,80,000) > minimum selling price of the beachfront parcel ($4,00,000). So she will buy.
Now, when the minimum selling price of another identical beachfront parcel has come down to $3,60,000, Beth will now be able to purchase the beachfront parcel using the same information as we did above.
For Beth : willingness and ability to purchase ($3,80,000) > minimum selling price of the beachfront parcel ($3,60,000). So he will buy.
This fourth parcel will be sold, because Beth will purchase it from the seller for at least the minimum price.
