Ceilings
Price Ceilings limit the price of a commodity. Ceilings enable more people to
buy commodities but
have the negative effect of creating shortages of commodities. For
instance, Rent Control limits
rent prices. There is little incentive for landlords to expand
their business if they are unable
to maintain reasonable profits. In Toronto there is a
shortage of apartment currently because
of rent control.
