    Highest to Lowest Producer surplus:

    For Tony = $95 - $45 = $50

    For Jennifer = $95 - $87 = $8

    For Becky = $95 - $105 = - $10

    Explanation:

    Producer Surplus : The producer surplus shows a difference between buying price and willingness to sell price

    In mathematically,

    Producer surplus = Buying price - willingness to sell price

    For Tony = $95 - $45 = $50

    For Jennifer = $95 - $87 = $8

    For Becky = $95 - $105 = - $10

    The above categorization of product surplus shows a highest to least product surplus of each student.
