So here we are talking price controls.
00:02
We have this lovely market here, quantity and price.
00:06
We have a supply curve that looks like this.
00:09
We have a demand curve that looks like this.
00:13
We have a price control that does something interesting.
00:21
So this is the interesting part.
00:23
The price control yields a quantity where the buyers are willing to pay p1 and the sellers willing to accept p2.
00:51
And we are told that p1 minus p2 is equal to 3.
00:56
Now the key thing is here, that means that p1 is equal to p2 plus 3.
01:02
P1 is greater than p2.
01:04
So we are looking for a quantity that is over here somewhere.
01:10
Because over here what we need is we need price 1 and price 2 where this gap is 3...
