When a price ceiling is lifted, the maximum legal price for a good or service is removed, allowing prices to rise based on market demand and supply. This often leads to an increase in the price of the good, potentially reducing shortages that existed under the price ceiling. As prices rise, producers may be incentivized to increase supply, leading to a more balanced market. However, consumers may face higher costs, which could affect their purchasing behavior.

When is price ceiling non-binding?
Binding Versus Non-Binding price ceilingsA price ceiling can be set above or below the free-market equilibrium price. For a price ceiling to be effective, it must differ from the free market price. In the graph at right, the supply and demand curves intersect to determine the free-market quantity and price. The dashed line represents a price ceiling set above the free-market price, called a non-binding price ceiling. In this case, the ceiling has no practical effect. The government has mandated a maximum price, but the market price is established well below that.In contrast, the solid green line is a price ceiling set below the free market price, called a binding price ceiling. In this case, the price ceiling has a measurable impact on the market.

How does price ceilings affect supply and demand?
A price ceiling prevents a price from rising above the ceiling. It represents an upper limit on the price of something. If wheat has a price ceiling of $400 per metric tonne, $400 is the highest amount any what supplier can charge. If the market price for wheat is below the ceiling, say $200 in this example, then the ceiling has no effect on prices; the ceiling is not binding. If the market price is higher than the ceiling, supply and demand cannot reach equilibrium and there is a shortage in the commodity. Artificially low prices result in demand that exceeds supply. The price, however, remains stuck at the ceiling.
