A _________ surplus is a net benefit that everyone receives from participating in the market and is measured by the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus without __________.
Group of answer choices:
Producer: Government
Total: Government
Total: Trade
Consumer: Trade barriers
If we talk in very simple terms then total surplus is the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus
consumer surplus is from the buyer side and producer surplus is from the supplier side

the correct answer here is option C
