Question

Price mechanism functions under the control of a specific controlling agency in the economy.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Price mechanism refers to the mechanism where price directs the flow of goods and services in the market as it directs the supply by the production sector i.e supply will increase if price increases and vice-versa and the demand by the consumer sector i.e demand will increase if price decreases and vice-versa. Therefore for price mechanism to operate, the market should be free from all types of interventions.
