Price Ceiling
(redirected from Price Ceilings)

    Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Price Ceiling
The highest price for a good or service permitted by a government. A government may impose a price ceiling to protect consumers or to combat inflation. Many economists believe setting price ceilings is economically inefficient and a better response is to find a way to increase the supply of a good or service in order to bring down prices.
