A price ceiling is a government-imposed limit on how high a price can be charged for a product, typically to protect consumers from high prices. An example of a price ceiling is rent control, where the government sets a maximum price landlords can charge for apartments to make housing more affordable. This can lead to shortages if the ceiling is set below the market equilibrium price, as demand may exceed supply.
