Answer: b. consumer does not purchase the good.

Explanation:

The price a Consumer buys a good is dependent on the amount they value the good. A good that is selling at a price higher than the value ascribed to it by the consumer will not be purchased because it is higher than the amount that the consumer wants to spend.

When the value to the consumer is higher than the price of the good, the consumer stands to make a surplus when they buy the good.
