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.
