Is economic rent fixed in total supply?

Land is completely fixed in total supply. No matter how high the rent, no more can be brought into use. Thus rent serves no incentive function; the same amount of land will be available no matter how high the rent. But the resulting argument that rent is a surplus that could be eliminated without reducing the supply is to look at it from the viewpoint of society only.

What is a area in the world that have consumer and producers in that area?

In mainstream economics, economic surplus (also known as total welfare or Marshaling surplus (named after Alfred Marshall) refers to two related quantities. Consumer surplus or consumers' surplus is the monetary gain obtained by consumers because they are able to purchase a product for a price that is less than the highest price that they would be willing to pay. Producer surplus or producers' surplus is the amount that producers benefit by selling at a market price that is higher than the least that they would be willing to sell for. In some schools of heterodox economics, the economic surplus denotes the total income which the ruling class derives from its ownership of scarce factors of production, which is either reinvested or spent on consumption. In Marxian economics, the term surplus may also refer to surplus value, surplus product and surplus labour.
