Suppose that Ron paid a scalper (a seller in the black market for tickets) $300 for a ticket to see the Rolling Stones and his true willingness to pay was $500. We can be sure that a. the ticket scalper extracted all the possible consumer surplus from Ron b. Ron’s consumer surplus was low because he paid more than face value for the ticket c. Ron’s consumer surplus was the $60 face value of the ticket d. Ron’s marginal-utility-to-price ratio for the concert was extremely high compared to that for other goods e. Ron enjoyed $200 of consumer surplus from the purchase
