A price control is a ceiling that is set by the government, which does not allow the price of a product to rise above a certain level. The reasons for setting price controls usually have something to do with a particular situation. For example, during a time of war, price controls may be set. Another reason could be a necessary commodity which has continued to rise in cost, making it prohibitively expensive for consumers.

What is the definition of price control?

in economics price controls can be defined as a government enforced maximum or minimum price for essential goods such as bread and housing. Maximum price is a price ceiling and a minimum price enforced by the government is a price floor. A price control is a law passed by the government that dictates the price of a good or service. It can either put a price ceiling (saying the price cannot go above a certain point) or a price floor (saying the price cannot go below a certain point). An example of a price ceiling is price control of gasoline in the 1970s. An example of a price floor (albiet not a good one) is the US government's policy in the past to pay farmers not to farm certain crops in an attempt to keep the supply down and the price up.
