    a. $2

    b. $4.5

    Explanation:

    The computation of the producer and consumer surplus is presented below:

    a. The consumer surplus = Willing to pay - Market price

    = $8.25 - $6.25

    = $2

    b. Producer surplus = Market price - willing to accept

    = $6.25 - $1.75

    = $4.5

    Hence all the given information is to be considered.
