A perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following inverse demand function and inverse supply function where Q is output and P is the price in dollars. 1. Suppose that a price ceiling of $30 is set by the government. Calculate the consumer surplus, the producer surplus, and the deadweight loss as a result of the government price ceiling
