Then, the government decides to impose a price ceiling at a price of Pc that is less than P. Which of the following statements is correct? 1. After the price ceiling is imposed, the quantity demanded is less than the quantity supplied on the market. 2. After the price ceiling is imposed, the quantity actually sold in the market is lower than it was before the price ceiling was imposed. 3. Producer surplus in the market increased after the price ceiling was imposed. 4. Since Pc is less than P, the price ceiling is effective and therefore, there is no deadweight loss in the market.arrow_forward

- You will analyze the Market for Gasoline Step 1: Draw a supply-and-demand diagram. Price is on the vertical axis, quantity is on the horizontal axis, demand is downward-sloping, supply is upward- sloping, and be sure to label equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Step 2. Change colors! If you have a highlighter or colored pencil (crayon, sharpie, whatever). Step 3. Show the change in demand or supply (only one curve will shift in each scenario). State if the curve decreases or increases. Step 4: Show the new equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity. Step 5: Repeat Steps 1-4 for each scenario. You will have a total of 4 graphs. Scenario A: A hurricane destroys refineries that produce gasoline. Scenario B: Consumers purchase electric vehicles that do not need gasoline. • Scenario C: Technological innovation occurs that reduces the cost of producing gasoline. Scenario D: Road trips become the one and only vacation option and many families opt for long-distance road trips. ● .arrow_forwardSuppose Atlanta imposes a rent control program that fixes rents at $300 below the equilibrium rent.
