Consider the market for air conditioning units. The following graph shows the demand and supply for air conditioning units before the government imposes any taxes. First, use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price and quantity of air conditioning units in the absence of a tax. Then use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing total consumer surplus (CS) at the equilibrium price. Next, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing total producer surplus (PS) at the equilibrium price. (?)

Question 3n On January 1, 2020, California initiated a state-wide rent control. Landlords may not raise rents more than 5% (in real terms) in a given year. Do you expect the price control to produce a surplus or shortage in 2020? It will create a shortage because it is a price ceiling It will create a surplus because it is a price ceiling It will create a shortage because it is a price floor It will create a surplus because it is a price floor
