Extract

The problem of estimating the lord's interest in a copyhold property which is subject to a fine on death and alienation, in other words, the enfranchisement value of such a property, has been a constant source of perplexity to Surveyors.

Its chief difficulty arises from the fact that the contingency of alienation has to be taken into account, in addition to the contingency of death, which is alone involved in ordinary actuarial problems.
