The producer surplus is $23

Explanation:

Producer surplus: The producer surplus show a difference between the producer willing to supply and the received price

In mathematically,

Producer surplus = (willing to supply - received price by the consumer)

So,

The producer surplus would equal to

= ($24 - $10) + ($24 - $15) + ($24 - $24)

= 14$ + $9 + $0

= $23
