Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Each is a measure of economic welfare or well-being. The more consumer surplus a buyer can gain from a transaction, the greater is consumer welfare. The more producer surplus a seller can gain from a transaction, the greater is producer welfare. Total surplus is equal to the sum of consumer and producer surplus.
