Final Answer :

Explanation :
Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price a consumer is willing to pay for a good and the actual price they pay. This can be found by computing the area below the demand curve and above the price paid for the good. Thus, choice C is the correct answer as it states that consumer surplus can be found by computing the area below the demand curve and above the price paid for the good.
