A price floor will cause a large surplus when the demand is low and the supply is high. The floor is the lowest point at which something can be sold without losing money.
A price floor can cause a surplus while a price ceiling can cause a shortage but not always.
The supply and demand model that a price floor will result in is based on consumer want and need. A lower demand will result in lower market values for products.
In a competitive market, it will produce an excess of supply (for the floor price, supply is bigger than demand)
When supply exceeds demand, it is known as a surplus.Surpluses only occur among rational producers and consumers if a regulatory price floor is in effect (that is, the government mandates that the price of the good or service in question not go below a certain level). If no such regulation is in place, the price of the good or service will lower to the point where supply and demand are equal to one another.If the price of the good is lowered, then demand will increase.
when quantity supplied is higher than the quantity demanded, there is an excess of goods produced which are not used which leads to surplus. as the people are not consuming the goods or buying them, they are remaining and must be destroyed or controlled by the government through price control schemes or interventions such as setting up a price price floor to control surplus

1st way of government policy to affect demand/supply is through price ceilings and price floors. By price ceiling it means that goods have to be sold below this price and price floors means that goods have to be sold above this price set. When price is forced down, suppliers will supply less and consumers will demand for more causing shortage, vice versa, when price is high, supplier will provide more and consumer will demand less causing surplus. 1 such example is price floor on agricultural. 2nd way where government policy affect demand/supply is through enforcing or altering taxes, minimum wage rate, subsidies and so on. Removing tax and increasing minimum wage rate increases disposable income of consumers which ultimately increase demand of good for normal goods and decrease demand of good for inferior goods. Hence, increasing tax and decreasing minimum wage rate will have the opposite effect. Increasing subsidies for producers will reduce their cost of production which will increase the suppliers willingness and ability to produce goods and services. -- By Johan Chua Song Yi
Whatever discount it takes to move them. If the item is "a dog," and beat-up, then 40 or 50% off might be necessary. If it's an in-demand item and in excellent condition, but discontinued, maybe the retailer can get away with not discounting the price at all on the floor sample - the last one. It's all supply and demand. (Of course, few retailers are willing to sell a floor sample at any discount if the floor sample represents more in-stock items.)
Because some employers are unwilling or unable to afford to pay the minimum wage and therefore do not hire and reduce the unemployment line.
if, at a current price there is a shortage of a good
