Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a good and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product

The dead weight loss of tax can be determined by calculating the reduction in total surplus as a result of the tax

Loss = (1/2 x 600 x 40) - (1/2 x 300 x 20)

12000  - 3000 = $9000
