Consider a commercial space with two tenants. An upscale restaurant and a live music venue. Currently, the restaurant is open serving customers until 10pm each night and the venue has music beginning at 9pm each night. The live music causes a disturbance at the restaurant harming the restaurant owner's profit, so the owner demands the music venue does not begin operating until 10pm. The venue ówner counters that the restaurant should just close an hour early, at 9pm. The following are the hourly profits both firms will earn depending on various closing times. . Scenario A: Both businesses are open between 9pm and 10pm: The restaurant earns $400 in profit and the venue earns $600 in profit between 9pm and 10pm. Scenario B: The venue does not open until 10pm: The restaurant would earn $1200 in profit
