The port of Brisbane has built one additional loading/storage facility on its docks, and it is negotiating with two potential interested parties. Only one of them will get the facility. TransShip also has the option of buying space in the port of Melbourne instead, which costs $30,000 per month and incurs an extra $10,000 per month in transportation costs, as goods from Asia have further to go. CargoHaul can also buy from Brisbane, or it can use its existing facilities elsewhere more intensively, which would cost $15,000 per month in overtime and would lead to an additional loss of $10,000 per month in damaged goods, because of crowding. The port of Brisbane has no other use for the facility. 1. Who gets the facility?
