6. In response to rising prices, the local government passes a law that says the price
of a loaf of bread cannot be higher than $5.50. Add a horizontal line across the
graph at that price and give it a label: price ceiling. At this lower price, how many
loaves would the seller be willing to make? How many loaves would customers want
to buy? (2 points)

Sagot :

At the lower price, sellers will be willing to make 40 loaves of bread.

At the lower price, customers will want to buy 60 loaves of bread.

What is a price ceiling?

Price ceiling is when the government determines the maximum price a good or service should be sold for. It is binding when it is set below equilibrium price.

In order to determine the quantity demanded at the price of $5.50, trace $5.50 to a point on the demand curve(the downward sloping curve). In order to determine the quantity supplied at the price of $5.50, trace $5.50 to a point on the supply curve(the upward sloping curve).
