Respuesta :

Answer:

$2

$3.50

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.

Consumer surplus = willingness to pay – price of the good

$6.75 - $4.75 = $2

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

Producer surplus = price – least price the seller is willing to accept

$4.75 - $1.25 = $3.5
