Answer:

So His producer surplus is $64

Explanation:

Given:

  • first hour for $10
  • the second hour for $18,
  • the third hour for $28
  • the fourth hour for $40

As we know that, manufacturers or producer surplus is the difference between the market price and the price that he is willing to teach, so we have:

  (40 - 10)  + (40 - 18) + (40-28) + (40-40)

<=> 30      +      22     +      12     +     0         =     64

So His producer surplus is $64
