1. Larry, Curly, and Mo dissolve their business partnership and must carry out a fair distribution of 5 v
aluable items which they own jointly. They use the Method of Sealed Bids to make the distribution, and write out their bids as follows:
    
    Painting
    office
    desk
    computer
    company car
    Larry
    $20,000
    $245,000
    $4,000
    $3,000
    $28,000
    Curly
    $50,000
    $300,000
    $4,000
    $3,000
    $30,000
    Mo
    $27,000
    $260,000
    $5,000
    $4,000
    $34,000
(a) Find the value of each player’s minimum fair share, in dollars.
    
    Painting
    office
    desk
    computer
    company car
    value of minimum fair share
    Larry
    $20,000
    $245,000
    $4,000
    $3,000
    $28,000
    $285,000 / 3 = $95,000
    Curly
    $50,000
    $300,000
    $4,000
    $3,000
    $30,000
    $300,000 / 3 = $100,000
    Mo
    $27,000
    $260,000
    $5,000
    $4,000
    $34,000
    $315,000 / 3 = $105,000
(b) Carry out the allocation of the items, and the first settlement.
First settlement:
    
    Items received (if any), and their value
    $ initially paid to bank account
    $ initially received from bank account
    Larry
    Painting, desk
    
    $95,000 - $24,000 = $71,000
    Curly
    No items
    
    $100,000
    Mo
    Office, computer, company car
    $295,200 - $105,000 = $190,200
    
(c) Find the surplus after the first settlement is over, and how much of the surplus each player receives.
Since there is no outside source of money, Mo puts $190,200 into the account, from which Larry and Curly are paid a total of $171,000. This leaves $190,200 - $171,000 = $19,200 as surplus.
Surplus is equally divided among 3 players = $19,200 / 3 = $6,400
