Identify Kanye's willingness to pay for each rhyme, which is \$3,000, and note that he needs a total of 10 rhymes.
List the ghostwriters in order of increasing price per rhyme: Brian (\$1,000), Consequence (\$2,000), Rhymefest (\$3,000), and Lupe Fiasco (\$6,000).
Calculate the total cost of purchasing 10 rhymes by selecting the cheapest options first: 1 rhyme from Brian, 4 rhymes from Consequence, and 5 rhymes from Rhymefest.
Determine the total amount Kanye is willing to pay for 10 rhymes by multiplying the number of rhymes (10) by his willingness to pay per rhyme (\$3,000).
Calculate the consumer surplus by subtracting the total cost of the rhymes from the total amount Kanye is willing to pay.
