Price floors and ceilings stifle the rationing function of prices and distort resource allocation because,

a.price restrictions result in a mis-allocation of resources, and consumers value the good and the resources needed to produce it differently than what the market currently offers

b.price restrictions result in a mis-allocation of incomes, and consumers value the production of the good more than producers do

c.price restrictions result in a mis-allocation of labour wages, and consumers value the production of the good less than producers do
