Determine the amount of producer surplus generated in the following situation. So­Hee advertises her car for sale in the used­car section of the student newspaper for $2,000, but she is willing to sell the car for any price higher than $1,500. The best offer she gets is $1,200, which she declines. The amount of So­Hee's producer surplus is _____.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is: $0

Explanation:

Producer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a suppler is willing and able to sell its product and the price of the product.

SoHee was willing to sell her car for at least $1,500, but she wasn't able to do so since the fair market price is $1,200. So, producer surplus is $0.
