Question
**Graph Explanation:**

The graph illustrates the domestic market for widgets with two main curves:

- **Domestic Demand Curve:** Sloping downwards from left to right, indicating that as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases.
- **Domestic Supply Curve:** Sloping upwards from left to right, showing that as the price increases, the quantity supplied increases.

Both axes are labeled:
- **Vertical Axis (Price):** Measured in dollars ($), ranging from 0 to 35.
- **Horizontal Axis (Quantity):** Measured in thousands per month, ranging from 0 to 60.

**Problem Description:**

This graph represents the domestic market for widgets. Under the current scenario, free trade is allowed, and the world price is set at $12. However, the government decides to impose a tariff of $2 on widgets. As a result, you need to determine the new consumer surplus, given in thousands. 

**Options:**

- $60
- $120
- $196
- $280
