If the price floor is above market equilibrium then companies are forced to sell at that price. This means the market's quantity supplied and quantity demanded will not equal each other, resulting in a surplus.
A price floor is a minimum price set by the government above the equilibrium price in a market. This can lead to an excess supply of goods, known as deadweight loss, because the price is higher than what consumers are willing to pay and producers are willing to sell at. This results in inefficiency and reduced overall welfare in the market.
A floor price is a group-imposed price limit on how low a price can be charged for a product.
A price floor is binding in a market when it is set above the equilibrium price, leading to a surplus of goods. Factors that determine whether a price floor is binding include the level at which the price floor is set, the elasticity of supply and demand for the product, and the presence of substitutes or complements in the market.
A price floor sets a minimum price for a product, while a subsidy provides financial assistance to producers. Price floors can lead to surpluses and reduced consumer demand, while subsidies can lower prices and increase consumer demand. Both can impact market dynamics and consumer behavior by influencing prices and production levels.
If the price floor is above market equilibrium then companies are forced to sell at that price. This means the market's quantity supplied and quantity demanded will not equal each other, resulting in a surplus. If the price floor is lower than market equilibrium then the government imposed regulation is non-binding, resulting in no change to the market.

Efficiency in the market is enhanced.

Yes, a binding price floor can cause a surplus in the market by setting the price above the equilibrium price, leading to an excess supply of the good or service.
below equilibrium price and causes a shortage
In a competitive market, it will produce an excess of supply (for the floor price, supply is bigger than demand)
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.
A price floor sets a minimum price for a good or service, while a subsidy provides financial assistance to producers. Price floors can lead to surpluses and inefficiencies, while subsidies can increase supply and lower prices. Both involve government intervention in the economy, but in different ways.
A shortage in an economic market leads to an increase in the equilibrium price and a decrease in the equilibrium quantity.
