Answer:

D) not able to be calculated from the information given.

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between willingness to pay of a consumer and the price actually paid for a good or service.

The price paid by Smith is $205,000 but there's no information on the willingness to pay of Smith. Therefore, the consumer surplus can't be calculated.

I hope my answer helps you.
