Answer:

No consumer surplus

Explanation:

Consumer surplus is the difference between the price a consumer pays for a good or service and the price the consumer was willing or budgeted for that same good or service. and from the question given the actual cost of the good is the same as the budgeted cost by the consumer

hence the consumer surplus will be calculated as = budgeted cost - actual cost

$30 - $30 = $0 therefore no consumer surplus is recorded in this transaction.
