Example of Voluntary Exchange
Ex: You want to buy a truck so you go to the local
dealership. You are willing to spend up to $20,000 for a
new 4x4. The seller is willing to sell this truck for no less
than $15,000. After some negotiation you buy the truck
for $18,000.
Analysis:
Buyer’ Maximum- $20,000
Sellers Minimum- $15,000
Price- $18,000
Consumer’s Surplus-$2,000
Producer’s Surplus- $3,000
15
Voluntary Exchange Terms
Consumer Surplus is the difference
between what you are willing to pay
and what you actually pay.
CS = Buyer’s Maximum – Price
Producer’s Surplus is the difference
between the price the seller received
and how much they were willing to sell
it for.
PS = Price – Seller’s Minimum
