18 The diagram shows the market demand and supply curves for rice.

What would happen if a government imposed a maximum price of $10?
A The government would need to supply Q1 to Q3.
B The quantity sold would be Q1.
C The quantity sold would be Q2.
D The quantity sold would increase from Q2 to Q3.

This is a question from paper 12 year 2011 ( 9708_w11_qp)


Why the answer is C. I think it should be B.
Please solve this question

because this is a general rule that quantity doesn't get affected if the maximum price imposed is greater than the equilibrium price. Maximum price should always be lower than the equilibrium price.

The quantity sold would be Q2, which is equilibrium quantity and price will remain at $8 because maximum price set above equilibrium is always ineffective and minimum price set below equilibrium is always ineffective.

13 In the diagram OS1 and OS2 are two straight-line supply curves.


As price increases, the elasticity of supply
A decreases along both OS1 and OS2.
B increases less rapidly along OS1 than along OS2.
C increases more rapidly along OS1 than along OS2.
D is constant along both OS1 and OS2.
Why the answer is D ?

when its a straight line (through origin in this case)
you get constant elasticity along each of the curves
