B) price floor.
C) price ceiling.

Respuesta :

Answer:

C) price ceiling

Explanation:

Price ceiling is the price control or the limit which is imposed by the government on how high the price can be charged for the particular commodity, product, or service.

Governments often use price ceilings in order to protect the consumers from conditions which could make the commodities prohibitively expensive.

Thus, President Chávez to reduce the price to 50 percent of previous price comes under the policy of price ceiling.
