For anyone who could not answer 2 At 3$, consumer surplus= (1/2)*base*height = (1/2) * (3-0)*6= 9 $ At new price 6$, consumer surplus = (1/2)*(6-0)*12$= 36$ Total consumer surplus (mean change in consumer surplus) = $36 - $9= 27$ So it is B

consumer surplus -- difference btw what consumers are willing to pay and what they do pay (at equil). (top half of the triangle) 1/2 x base x h e.g. Bea is willing to pay $100 for a relic, but the market equilibrium is $40 (between D and S), and therefore she pays $40. $60 is the consumer surplus. producer surplus - difference btw the price what producers are willing to sell for (at equil). (bottom half of triangle) 1/2 x base x h e.g. Ava wants to sell a relic for $10, but the market price is $40, and therefore she sells it for $40. The $30 is the producer surplus. Hence total surplus would be $60 + $30 = $90.
Thank you for this great video. I was asked by my instructor, or the class was asked to post a discussion post about the understanding of Consumer and Producer Surplus for my Macroeconomics class. Your video wasn't boring and actually fun to learn from! Thank you! It helped a lot!
Thanks for the great video! I'm more of a visual-learner so the use of symbols does help me a lot :). Also the little photograps in the Consumer/Producers surplus graph are helpful.
I would like to learn more about ethics in economics because as you pointed out markets can lead to ethical dilemmas. We should evaluate the morality system that an economic system induces and see if it’s compatible with ours.
DUDE! I FRIGGIN' LOVE YOU! Microeconomics has oh, never been so much fun. No, I don't want a lock of your hair, but I would love to get your lesson on positive v. negative externalities.
Since this guy have terrible explanation of consumer surplus change, here is a good explanation for how answer for second question is B: First price was: 3 dollars for 12 units. (price A) So, to calculate consumer surplus at this price, you have to calculate the size of triangle ABOVE the price. To do this, we need to take quantity (12) and multiply it by the 1/2 height of triangle, since price is at 3 dollars, height will be: 9 dollars minus 3 dollars, and you get 6 dollars. Now you need to divide the height by two (height 6$ divided by 2) and you get 3. So, when you multiply 12 by 3 (3 is half of height), you get 36, which is size of this triangle. (triangle A) Now, price changes to 6$ for 6 units. (price B) To calculate consumer surplus for this price, you need to do the same thing (quantity × 1/2 height of triangle: which is 3 dollars (9 minus 6) and then divide 3 by 2 to get 1.5, which is 1/2 height of triangle of new price. So, the size of new triangle (B) is 6 × 1,5 = 9. First consumer surplus was triangle A (size 36) Second consumer surplus is triangle B (size 9) So, if it has decreased from 36 to 9, it means 36 - x = 9 Now, you find x: 36 - 9 = x x = 27 So, the question is asking by how much did it DECREASE, and not what is the FINAL CONSUMER SURPLUS (triangle B, size 9). It has decreased by x = 27, since 36 minus x gave us 9.
10:04 If the base of that triangle is 3, and the price per unit falls by $20 per unit, I find the height of the triangle to be $60/unit which gives a consumer surplus of $90. Of course, who would buy 0 locks of hair for $120? That's just charity. Using a triangle to compute consumer surplus assumes that I can buy any fractional amount of a good. Would you be happy with half of a car for example? It's maybe better to think of the consumer surplus as the money saved per unit for quantities less than the equilibrium quantity. $40 (for 1 unit) + $20 ( for 2 units = $60 in consumer surplus.
Thank you for the videos Mr. Clifford! As a lawyer who's just learning about economics, your videos have made it super easy for me to comprehend and understand economic concepts. But I have a question please. I understand that the scenario you painted are hypothetical. However how do they occur in real life? How exactly do firm do an analysis of how much individuals will be willing to pay for a product?
That's basically what data scientists do. They analyze data and use it to make a conclusion of how much someone is willing to pay for a good. Some factors used to determine the price of a good include the price elasticity of demand for the good and the price of substitute and complement goods. Determining this in real life actually isn't easy as there are many factors to consider, such as time of day, weather, current events, etc. There are entire companies just dedicated to providing price recommendations to businesses, such as Clearent.

At 3 dollars the quantity demanded is 12 units and there is a consumer surplus of 36 which is the area of the right angle triangle at price = 3.And when price increases to 6 dollars the demanded units reduces from 12 to 6 units .Here at price = 6 the consumer surplus is the area of the right angle triangle at price 6, which is equal to 9.thus the consumer surplus reduces by 27.
Hi. Mr. Clifford, can you please explain how you got B as the answer for question 2 again? I got A. I followed the formula 1/2BH. That is. I multiplied the increase of price (which was 3 units) to the decrease in supply (6 units) and divided it by 2.
You have to calculate the initial CS and the final CS and subtract the final by the initial. So, Initial CS = 12 × 6 ÷ 2 = 36 Final CS = 6 × 3 ÷ 2 = 9 Total CS = 9 - 36 = -27
@@tasha9162 I am confused. There is no equilibrium price, so how can I get the initial consumer surplus and final consumer surplus? If you can help, I am appreciated it.
@@fionawang193 Hi, There is no equilibrium because there is no supply curve so you can ignore that bit. The important thing to remember is that consumer surplus is how much people actually pay compared to how much they would like to pay. This can be calculated by measuring the triangle in which the height is the price they wanted to pay minus the price they actually paid, and the base is the quantity they got. So in the graph, you can see that because the demand curve starts at $9, this means that people are willing to buy it at that price point, but fortunately they can get it at only $3 for 12 quantities. This is their customer surplus. So the first (initial) customer surplus is the triangle with the height of 9 - 3 = 6, and the base of 12. On the other hand, because now they have to pay $6, people are only willing to buy 6 amounts. So the second (final) customer surplus is the triangle with the height of 9 - 6 = 3, and the base of 6. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any questions.

@@issybosworth3102 It's really simple. We know in the question they talk abt the PRICE so that means the y-axis. In that y-axis, the price increases from $3 to $6, so we are scaling upwards. At the price of $3, that is sort the side in the triangle, so at that, quantity is 12, and price is $6. (The price ends at $9, so $9-$3 is $6.) If you look back at the graph, you will see a big triangle, using that we must find area, which is 1/2BH. So it will be 1/2 * (12) * ($6) = $36. Now this is not the end, the question also taks about the price of $6, so since we know that price ends at $9, ($9-$6 is $3. So our height is that $3.) The base (quantity) also changes, since the $6 price ends at quantity 6, it is simply 1/2 * (6) * ($3) = $9. Finally, we subtract these values since we want to see the DECREASE in value- so it will be $36-$9 which is $27. Hope this helps! Sorry for the delay.

At 3$, consumer surplus= (1/2)*base*height = (1/2) * (3-0)*6= 9 $
At new price 6$, consumer surplus = (1/2)*(6-0)*12$= 36$
Total consumer surplus (mean change in consumer surplus) = $36 - $9= 27$
So it is B
Where did u get 6 for the first oart
Our Q was 6 and our height for the whole consumer surplus is 9 , half the base of 6 = 3
Thus 3*9 = 27
