A surplus is when there is more goods and services available than people or businesses can consume. This can happen when there is an increase in production, or when people or businesses sell goods and services they don't need. A real world example of a surplus would be if there were too many apples available, and people were not able to buy apples from the store.

In economics, a surplus is a situation in which supply exceeds demand. This means there is an abundance of goods or services being produced with no one to buy them. An example of this would be if a farmer produces more crops than they can sell, they would have an agricultural surplus.
