Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": There will be downward pressure on the prices.

Explanation:

Price floors are the minimum legal prices that buyers are expected to pay for a product. These prices are usually set by law with the intervention of the government. In the case the price floor is removed, the price tendency is to go down since as there is no minimum price anymore, buyers could take advantage of the situation to offer less money for the same product.
