Suppose the government imposes a price ceiling of $50 on a market characterized by the following information:
Qd = 700 - 2P Qs = 100 + 4P
[Note: P = price per unit; Qd = hundreds of units demanded; Qs = hundreds of units supplied]
Calculate the magnitude of deadweight loss from the price ceiling. Find a price floor that will result in the same magnitude of deadweight loss.
