Tortillas are made from corn or wheat flour. Suppose Venezuela places a price ceiling on tortillas, which is below the equilibrium price. Suppose now that in order to assist corn farmers, a price floor is placed above the equilibrium price for corn. Graph this result using a separate diagram. What effect will the corn floor have on the market for tortillas, assuming the price ceiling is still in place? Explain and show on the corn graph.

1. Draw the supply and demand for wheat on a graph, and indicate the equilibrium price and quantity. Suppose rice and wheat are consumption substitutes, and corn and wheat are production substitutes. Describe and show what happens in the market for wheat when 2 events occur at the same time: 1) the price of corn increases, and 2), a drought (lack of rain) occurs in rice-growing regions, causing the supply of rice to fall.. Suppose the drought in rice has...

The government of Venezuela imposed price ceilings on a wide variety of consumer goods from 2007 to at least 2015 (the time of writing) The markets for flour, sugar, and cooking oil were subject to strong price controls that required they be sold below the market price. As a result of these price ceilings, in 2015 the government required that producers provide between 30 and 100 percent of their output to the government. Use the graph to the right to...
