The State of Georgia enters into a contract with Treasure Salvors governing the salvage of a Spanish galleon that sunk in the 1600s. Under the terms of the contract, the salvagers agree to relinquish 25% of the items recovered to the State of Georgia in return for the right to salvage on state lands. At the time the parties enter into the contract, they both believe that the seabed where the ship lies is State land. Subsequently, the United States Supreme Court holds that the continental shelf on which the ship rests has never been owned by Georgia. The salvagers sue to rescind the contract. The contract:

Aprice ceiling is “binding” if the price ceiling is set below the equilibrium price. suppose that the equilibrium price is $5. if a price ceiling is set at $6, this will not affect the market in any way since $5 remains a legally allowable price (since $5 < $6). a price ceiling of $6 is called a “non-binding” price ceiling. on the other hand, if the price ceiling is set at $4, the price ceiling is “binding” because the natural equilibrium price is $5 but that is no longer allowed. what happens when there is a binding price ceiling? at a price below the equilibrium price, quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied. there is a shortage. normally, price increases eliminate shortages by increasing quantity supplied and decreasing quantity demanded. in this case, however, price increases are not allowed past the price ceiling. we therefore predict that the observed market price will be right at the price ceiling and there will be a permanent shortage. the observed quantity bought and sold will be dictated by the quantity supplied at the price ceiling. although consumers would like to buy more, there are no more units for sale
