Answer:

The number of units that would be exchanged in the market for good ABC at the price ceiling would be _________ units.

b. 40

Explanation:

The suppliers of good ABC cannot sell above $4 since it is the price ceiling.  A price ceiling is the opposite of a price floor.  A price ceiling usually prevents the market of good ABC from reaching equilibrium as suppliers will be unwilling to supply more units of ABC.
