Consumer surplus

Producer surplus

Neither

Explanation:

The producer surplus is the difference between the lowest price that a producer is willing to accept and the price he actually gets.  

Consumer surplus is the difference between the maximum price that a consumer is willing to pay and the price it actually has to pay.  

The buyer was willing to pay $67 for the textbook but it actually has to pay $58. Here, the consumer surplus is $9.  

The seller is willing to receive $24 for a sweater but he actually gets $31. Here, the producer surplus is $7.  

The seller sold the laptop for $200, the lowest price that the seller is willing to accept is not given. Nor the maximum price that the buyer was willing to pay is given. So it is neither consumer surplus nor producer surplus.
