$5
Explanation:
Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good.
Willingness to pay is the highest amount a consumer would be willing to pay for a product. The willingness to pay in this question is $30.
The price of the goods is $35 but Alice would pay ($35 - $10) = $25
The consumer surplus is $30 - $25 = $5
Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the lowest price a supplier would be willing to sell his product.

Answer:
d. the supply curve of new houses would shift rightward, since builders would be willing to produce and sell more houses at each given price.
Place more oil on the market this year, shifting the curve rightward.
Explanation:
1. In the given scenario the government is willing to give home-construction companies $10,000 for every house that they build.
This will result in more willingness on the part of the construction companies to build more houses.
More houses built means more income coming in from the government.
Therefore the supply curve of home building will shift to the right.
2. When oil producers expect prices of oil to increase in the next year, there is a need to control oil prices by increasing availability of oil in the market.
Increase in price results from a scarcity of oil. So to mitigate this excess oil is supplied to control price increase.
This action will shift the curve rightward.
