Answer:

The answer is: D) $1.75

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price that a consumer is willing to pay for a good and the actual price paid for the good.

Larry, Alan and Ryan were all willing to pay more for a bottle of soda than the actual price of the soda.

  • Larry's consumer surplus = $2 - $1 = $1
  • Alan's consumer surplus = $1.50 - $1 = $0.50
  • Ryan's consumer surplus = $1.25 - $1 = $0.25

The total consumer surplus is $1 + $0.50 + $0.25 = $1.75

Stella [2.4K]
True. A monopolist does not face the same constraints as an open or free market but instead is bounded by the consumers' demand for its products. Therefore, the firm's decision about how much to supply is directly related to its demand curve because they can produce as much or as little as the consumes demand.
