Deborah and Janet are considering contributing toward the creation of a building mural. Each can choose whether to contribute $200 to the building
mural or to keep that $200 for a new sult.
Since a bullding mural is a public good, both Deborah and Janet will benefit from any contributions made by the other person. Specifically, every dollar
that either one of them contributes will bring each of them $0.80 of benefit. For example, if both Deborah and Janet choose to contribute, then a total
of $400 would be contributed to the building mural. So, Deborah and Janet would each receive $320 of benefit from the building mural, and their
combined benefit would be $640. This is shown in the upper left cell of the first table.
Since a new suit is a private good, if Deborah chooses to spend $200 on a new suit, Deborah would get $200 of benefit from the new suit and Janet
wouldn't recelve any benefit from Deborah's choice. If Deborah still spends $200 on a new suit and Janet chooses to contribute $200 to the building
mural, Deborah would still receive the $160 of benefit from Janet's generosity. In other words, if Deborah decides to keep the $200 for a new suit and
Janet decides to contribute the $200 to the public project, then Deborah would receive a total benefit of $200 + $160 = $360, Janet would receive a
total benefit of $160, and their combined benefit would be $520. This is shown in the lower left cell of the first table.
