Price ceilings are counter intuitive. Suppose the equilibrium price in a market is $50 and the quantity sold in equilibrium is 100 units per week. Draw diagrams for 1 and 2.
1. If a price ceiling of $100 is imposed on this market, what would be the price in the market? Will 100 units still be sold?
2. If a price ceiling of $25 is imposed on this market, what will be the price in the market? Will 100 units still be sold?
3. Is it true that for a price ceiling to be “effective” it must be high enough? ("Effective" means it has an effect on the market price.) Explain with reference to your answers for (1) and (2) above.

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...
