Rent controls force landlords to price apartments below the equilibrium price level. An immediate effect is a shortage (excess d
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Option (a) and (c) are correct.

Explanation:

We know that rent control is an example of price ceiling. If the price of apartments set below the equilibrium price level then there is increase in the demand for apartments. So, the demand for apartments exceeds quantity supplied at the prevailing market price.

(a) Therefore, the quality of rental housing falls because of the lower price of the apartment. As this will become less profitable for the landlords, so they are least interested in the maintenance of the apartments.

(b) This will also lead to develop black market. The landlords are trying to fool the higher authorities and rent their apartments at a higher cost because this will be done without any type of legal documentation of the apartments or results from the manipulation of the rules.

By definition marginal revenue is the revenue generated by the sale of one more unit of product Z.

Marginal revenue = unit price

Since firm X participates in a perfectly competitive market, it is a price taker, and since the marginal revenue is constant, we can assume that this is the equilibrium price of product Z.

Amazon creates one central place for customers to find almost everything they could ever need or want. This keeps their customer base happy, committed and spending on Amazon.com daily.
