What is the shortage caused by the price ceiling?

A price ceiling is when the government places a limit on the highest amount a good or service can be sold for. It is binding when it is placed below equilibrium price.

Because price is below equilibrium price, there would be a shortage.

Shortage = quantity demanded - quantity supplied

640 - 480 = 160
