Scenario: Suppose that the government imposes a price control on gasoline where the legal price is set at $1.50 per gallon while the equilibrium price would be $2.25. A shortage ensues. Worried that you may not have enough gas to commute to school and do errands, you get up before dawn to go to a gas station to fill up the tank. But you find yourself waiting in a long line. Fortunately, the station did not run out of gas before your turn came up, and you were happy to drive away with a full tank.


Refer to the scenario above. The shortage results because ________.

▸ the government withholds a large quantity of the resources under the price control

▸ consumers demand more than the quantity of the resource that physically exists

▸ consumers demand more than sellers are willing to supply at the legal price

▸ consumers demand more than sellers can produce
