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](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/d6566023-67fa-49da-af5c-c3e0f776fe35/ebe738e4-e375-453d-8f39-74f984d79a34/9knniuy_thumbnail.jpeg)
