15. Suppose in the European Union (EU), initially
the market for “ Brexit cheese” operates freely. Now the EU imposes
a price floor for “Brexit cheese” that is below the market
equilibrium price. Then,
a) The price floor causes no deadweight loss
b) The price floor increases the quantity of “Brexit cheese”
demanded in the EU
c) The price floor creates a surplus of “Brexit cheese”
d) (b) and (c)
Homework Answers
Equilibrium price is determined where demand and supply are equal. But floor price is declared by the government to protect the producers of good. Here , Floor price is below the equilibrium ones. it suggests that market will operate at equilibrium price. Price will not fall down to floor level. So there will not be any deadweightloss.

Suppose the current equilibrium price of cheese pizzas is
$11.00, and 10 million pizzas are sold per month. After the
federal government imposes a $4.00 per pizza tax, the equilibrium
price of pizzas rises to $13.00, and the equilibrium quantity
falls to 8 million. This situation is illustrated in the
graph.
Compare the economic surplus LOADING... in this market when
there is no tax to when there is a tax on pizza.
