Uppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $110. This price ceiling is , and the market price will be. The quantity supplied will be, and the quantity demanded will be. Therefore, a price ceiling of $110 will result in .

1. his price ceiling is biding.

2. The market price will be $110 since it is binding

3. The quantity supplied will be reduced by the suppliers.

4. The quantity demanded will be increased by the buyers.

5. Therefore, a price ceiling of $110 will result in a shortage.

Explanation:

A price ceiling is a government or legally imposed maximum price or price limit at a good must be sold. The price ceiling is usually set below the equilibrium price determined by the forces of the demand and supply in order to prevent the good becoming too expensive for the consumers.

When there is a price ceilings quantity demand will be higher than the quantity supplied and this will result in a shortage. This is demonstrated with an example below.

Check the following example

For example, let us assume that government imposed a price ceiling of $60  when the quantity supplied by the supplier is QS = 4P , and the quantity demand is by the consumers is QD = 400−P.

The equilibrium price determined by the forces of demand and supply without the government intervention will be as follows:

QS = QD

4P = 400 - P

4P + P = 400

5P = 400

P = 400 ÷ 5

P = $80

This shows that the equilibrium price of $80 is higher than the price ceiling of $60 which is binding.

At P = $80, the quantity demanded (QD) and supplied (QS) will be equal. That is:

QS = 4P

      = 4 × 80

QS = 320

QD = 400 - P

      = 400 - 80

QD = 320

This implies that at market determined price of $80, QS = QD = 320 units.

But at P = $60 price ceiling, we will have:

QS = 4P

      = 4 × 60

QS = 240

QD = 400 - P

      = 400 - 60

QD = 340

QD - QS = 340 - 240 = 100 units shortage.

This implies that at the price celing of $60, QS ≠ QD, this resulted into a 100 units shortage.

answer; drop shippers;

anyone below or above ambitious can tell you. so crowns mean brainliest. getting brainliest means your answer needs a good explanation and the person asking the question can understand your answer easily. so say there's a multiple choice question. you don't just want to say your answer is a, hope it . provide evidence and reasoning so that they know that that is the correct answer. a good explanation should have evidence, good reasoning, and your opinion on why you picked that. you don't want to look up their question on the internet and see if you can answer it. pick questions that you 100% know the answer to, so than that way you can provide a better explanation.

best of luck,
