Do producers tend to favor price floors or price ceilings?

price floors because, when binding, price floors increase price above the equilibrium and may increase producer surplus.


When are price ceilings and price floors binding?

A price ceiling is the legal maximum price at which a good can be sold, while a price floor is the legal minimum price at which a good can be sold. A price ceiling is only binding when the equilibrium price is above the price ceiling. The market price then equals the price ceiling and the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied, creating a shortage of goods. A price floor is only binding when the equilibrium price is below the price floor. The market price then equals the price floor and the quantity supplied exceeds the quantity demanded, creating a surplus of goods.

When the government intervenes in the market by imposing price ceilings and price floors what occurs?

Price ceiling are maximum price for a particular good or service, usually by the government. If price ceiling is placed below an equilibrium price (set by the supply and demand of the market) there is a shortage since suppliers are not as willing to supply the goods while the consumers are willing to purchase more of the product. However, if the price ceiling is placed above an equilibrium price, it is considered non-binding and has no practical effect. Price floor works opposite of price ceiling and is a minimum price for a particular good or service. If price floor is placed above an equilibrium price there is a surplus. However, if the price ceiling is placed below an equilibrium price, it is considered non-binding and has no practical effect.
