A highly simplified game of “Monopoly” is played on a board with four squares as shown in Figure. You start at GO. You roll a die and move clockwise around the board a number of squares equal to the number that turns up on the die. You collect or pay an amount indicated on the square on which you land. You then roll the die again

and move around the board in the same manner from your last position. Using the result of Exercise, estimate the amount you should expect to win in the long run playing this version of Monopoly.
