Suppose the equilibrium price for medicinal (isopropyl) alcohol is $7 per pint. What would be the lowest possible binding price floor on a pint

Respuesta :

Answer: $7.01 per pint

Explanation:

When a Price Floor is set on a good, it means that the sellers of this good cannot sell at a price below the price floor. If the price floor for internet subscription was $5 for instance, internet provider cannot sell this subscription for less than $5.

A price floor is said to be binding when it is higher than the equilibrium price of the good. The price here is $7 so the minimum binding price that will be above the equilibrium will be $7.01.
