Explanation of Solution

  • Only the owner and guests are allowed to enter an apartment, as it is a closed apartment. If the same is converted to an open access resource then anyone can use it at any point of time in the way they want to.
  • This would result in the end of privacy and with time it will become congested as no one would be legally restricted from entering the apartment.

Concept introduction:

Rival and non-rival goods:

If a good or service is consumed by a person alone at a time and its consumption is prevented from the other people at that point of time, then such kind of goods are known as rival goods.

If a good or service is consumed by a person alone and its consumption is not prevented from other people at that point of time, then this kind of good is called a non-rival good. Generally, private goods are treated as rival goods and public goods are treated as non-rival goods.
