How Monopoly Money Works
In Monopoly, your monetary value is determined by the properties you own and the improvements on them. Each property has a specific monetary value, and each house or hotel adds to that value.
The standard Monopoly property values are:
- Brown properties: $60 each
- Light Blue properties: $100 each
- Pink properties: $140 each
- Orange properties: $180 each
- Red properties: $220 each
- Yellow properties: $260 each
- Green properties: $300 each
- Dark Blue properties: $350 each
Each house adds $50 to the value of a property, and a hotel (which replaces 4 houses) adds $200.
Total Value = (Number of Properties × Property Value) + (Number of Houses × $50) + (Number of Hotels × $200)
For example, owning 2 properties in the Brown group with 1 house and 1 hotel on each would be calculated as:
(2 × $60) + (1 × $50) + (1 × $200) = $120 + $50 + $200 = $370
Worked Examples
Example 1: Basic Properties
You own 1 property in the Light Blue group and 1 property in the Pink group. No houses or hotels.
Calculation: (1 × $100) + (1 × $140) = $240
Total monetary value: $240
Example 2: Properties with Houses
You own 2 properties in the Orange group, each with 2 houses.
Calculation: (2 × $180) + (4 × $50) = $360 + $200 = $560
Total monetary value: $560
Example 3: Mixed Properties
You own 1 property in the Red group with 3 houses, 1 property in the Yellow group with 1 hotel, and 1 property in the Green group with no improvements.
Calculation: (1 × $220) + (3 × $50) + (1 × $260) + (1 × $200) + (1 × $300) = $220 + $150 + $260 + $200 + $300 = $1,130
Total monetary value: $1,130
