Order Description
Objective 5: Analyze the concept of price and price controls and the interaction within the economy.
Price controls instituted by the government set price limits that sellers can ask for certain products. Price controls can set a legal maximum or minimum limit on the cost of a product. While price controls are often pushed for by the public, price controls have several negative impacts. First, price controls reduce gains made through trade. Secondly, price controls often result in unintended consequences through impact on related, but not directly affected, parts of the market.
