Maxi Malls would like to acquire four plots in a square which will be used for a major suburban shopping mall. Your group desires to own plots A1, A2, B1 and B2. Normally, plots sell for $25,000. All your present designs are based on a square plot of land with store buildings in the center and ample parking space all around the buildings.

You have heard rumors of a highway going in somewhere in the area, but are not sure where it is going.
