Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

With an effective rent ceiling, some means for allocation of housing units (other than by price) becomes necessary. Some housing is allocated by first-come, first-serve. Other housing is allocated by discrimination. Black markets also develop, where housing units are allocated at a rent higher than the regulated rent.
