The following rules apply in Beverly Hills: high prices, buy; low prices, don’t buy.” Do you agree? Discuss.

The Municipal Corporation limits rents to their current Rs.10000-per-month level. Draw a supply and demand graph to illustrate what will happen to the rental price of an apartment after the imposition of rent controls. Do you think this policy will benefit students? Why or why not?
