    Option D.

    A shortage of treadmills will develop

    Explanation:

    If the government imposes a binding price on the sale of treadmills, there will be a reduction in the production of treadmills.

    This is because many treadmill producing companies will not see the production of more treadmills as being worthwhile since their profit margins have been greatly reduced, and the cost of production is still the same.
