Transcribed Image Text:### Tariff Impact on Producer Surplus
**Graph Explanation:**
The graph illustrates the supply and demand of saddles with domestic market considerations. It includes a tariff effect, which impacts the producer surplus and world price level.
- **Axes**:
- The vertical axis represents the "Price per Saddle."
- The horizontal axis represents the "Quantity of Saddles."
- **Lines**:
- The **Domestic Supply** line slopes upward from left to right.
- The **Domestic Demand** line slopes downward from left to right.
- **Price Points**:
- \( P_1 \) indicates the initial world price without a tariff.
- \( P_2 \) indicates the new higher price with the tariff applied.
- **Areas**:
- **Producer Surplus Changes**:
- Before Tariff: Areas \( A \) and \( B \) represent total producer surplus.
- After Tariff: Additional area \( C \) is gained due to the tariff.
- **Consumer Surplus Changes**:
- Areas \( D \), \( E \), and \( F \) indicate changes in consumer surplus as a result of the tariff.
- \( G \) represents the change in quantity due to the tariff.
- **Quantity Points**:
- \( Q_1 \), \( Q_2 \) indicate the quantities before the tariff.
- \( Q_3 \), \( Q_4 \) show adjusted quantities after the tariff effects.
**Question:**
What is the new amount of Producer Surplus gained as a result of the tariff?
- \( A + B \)
- \( G + C \)
- \( G + C - D \)
- \( C \)
The correct additional producer surplus gained due to the tariff is represented by area \( C \).
