Step 1: Understand the concept of willingness to pay (WTP), which is the maximum amount a consumer is willing to pay for a good or service.
Step 2: Recognize that the market price is the actual price consumers pay to purchase the good in the market.
Step 3: Define consumer surplus as the difference between the consumer's willingness to pay and the market price, representing the net benefit or gain to the consumer.
Step 4: Express consumer surplus mathematically as \(\text{Consumer Surplus} = \text{Willingness to Pay} - \text{Market Price}\) for each unit purchased.
Step 5: Note that consumer surplus measures the extra value or utility consumers receive beyond what they pay, distinguishing it from producer surplus, total revenue, or production costs.
