    1hr 30 min with my professor tonight on PED and CS / PS / deadweight I had not a clue. 18 min and 2 videos from your channel and I feel like I can pass my test.

    This is my 2nd video that I have watched tonight and I can honestly say that in the 20 minutes it has taken me to watch your videos a few times I understand these concepts x1,000 more than the entire chapter from the text book we were assigned. Thank you for taking the time to make these I'll be watching more of your videos as class moves along.

    Appreciated! I won't mind donating $ to work like this. Simple is everything and you did that step, by step too well. That's what I call teaching with passion. You refreshed my forgotten maths by holding my hands step-by-step.

    I think this program your using really helps illustrate what's changing and the result of the change. Looking at dotted lines with no movement makes it hard to follow what's really going on because after new shifts either S1 to S2 or D1 to D2 the graph is covered with dotted lines.
    So far microeconomics is by far the most frustrating class I've taken because I'm good at math and the calculations are not hard so it's like what's wrong with me? I just get lost with these dam dots and things get murky on what is and what was. I gotta pull it together some how.
    These videos are by far the best illustrations- thanks man.

    Producer surplus is the area above the supply curve and below the market price. There are producers that are willing to take less than the market price. They benefit from a market price that is above the price they are willing to take. This is producer surplus.
