Q.

When too much money is chasing too few goods, the situation is -

A. deflation
B. inflation
C. recession
D. stagflation
Answer» B. inflation
Explanation: Demand-pull inflation is asserted to arise when aggregate demand in an economy outpaces aggregate supply. It involves inflation rising as real gross domestic product rises and unemployment falls, as the economy moves along the Phillips curve. This is commonly described as "too much money chasing too few goods". More accurately, it should be described as involving "too much money spent chasing too few goods", since only money that is spent on goods and services can cause inflation.
