    The correct answer is letter "D": $150.

    Explanation:

    Producer Surplus is the difference between the price at which a producer sells a product and the minimum price a producer would have accepted for the product. The surplus comes from the producer being able to sell its products at a higher market price than its minimum price.

    Thus, in the example:

    Producer surplus = $350 - $200

    Producer surplus = $150
