Ten thousand people wanted to attend a concert, but the stadium only seats 3,000. Because of the high demand, concert officials increased the price of admission to a point

where only 3,000 people were able to afford the price. Which of the following best relates to the other 7,000 people who were unable to attend the concert:
Limited demand
Price incentives
Price rationing
Excess supply

It would be an example of price rationing. Since 3000 could only attend, they would have to increase the price to gain a profit from the demand.
