The market price is below the equilibrium price.
To calculate surplus on a graph, find the equilibrium point where supply and demand intersect. The surplus is the area above the equilibrium price and below the demand curve. Subtract the equilibrium price from the highest price on the demand curve to find the surplus.

The price ceiling is located below the equilibrium price on a graph depicting market equilibrium.

Supply and demand graphs meet at the equilibrium price.
Price is determined at the point of equilibrium. Equilibrium is a point of balance. In other words, equilibrium is the point at which quantity demanded and quantity supplied is equal. That is, market equilibrium refers to a condition where a market price is established through competition such that the amount of goods or services sought by buyers is equal to the amount of goods or services produced by sellers. This price is called equilibrium price.

Excess Supply
A price ceiling is binding when it is below the equilibrium price. It is the legal maximum price, so the market wants to reach equilibrium (which is above that) but can't legally. If it were above the equilibrium price it would not be binding because the market would reach equilibrium and the ceiling would have no effect. A price floor is binding when it is above the equilibrium price. You can use similar reasoning to that above. It is the legal minimum price. the market wants to reach equilibrium below that but can't legally.
