Demand pull inflation
Demand pull inflation occurs when aggregate demand exceeds aggregate supply of goods and services in the economy. In this situation, economy expands rapidly surpassing its productive capacity.
Oe reason of rising demand for goods and services is increase in money supply. Addition income raises purchasing power and demand for goods and services in the economy. The process is illustrated below:
In the figure, As demand rises, AD curve shifts rightward to AD2 along the long run aggregate supply curve. Eventually to restore equilibrium, price rises and real GDP also rises when production .
There are other reasons of demand pull inflation such as depreciation of domestic currency. As currency depreciates, export demand increases and income also rises in domestic economy. Hence, aggregate demand rises.

Note: There is only one correct option. 1. To get the equilibrium level of income in the simple Keynesian model [1] we multiply the autonomous aggregate spending by the multiplier 12 we add all the autonomous aggregate spending component and subtract the multiplier [3] we divide the multiplier by aggregate demand [4] we multiply the interest rate by the multiplier 2. An increase in the tax rate in the Keynesian model will 1 shift the aggregate spending curve upwards in...
Section B B22 Expansionary demand management policy measures tend to… [1] raise the real GDP and inflation. [2] increase price level and decrease real output. [3] increase both inflation and the level of unemployment. [4] Increase the production cost, which will decrease total production. B24 Which of the following is NOT the cause of demand-pull inflation? [1] increase in consumption spending. [2] a decrease in interest rates. [3] increase in net exports. [4] rising commodity (e.g. oil) price. B25 Cost-push...

B. a sudden increase in the price of an important natural resource, resulting in a leftward shift of the SRAS curve. O C. an increase potential GDP caused by a govemment expenditure multiplier, resulting in a leftward shift of the AD curve. D. an increase in both the inflation and the unemployment...

Suppose that workers and firms perfectly forecast inflation, so that the real wage remains unchanged as the price level rises over time. Prices and wages rise at the same rate, which implies that the real wage stays constant. The following graph shows the aggregate demand curve (AD) in an economy in long-run equilibrium. Assume the natural rate of unemployment is 6%, and potential output is $50 trillion. Use the orange points (square symbol) to draw the aggregate supply curve in...
1. According to the long-run Phillips curve, if the central bank increases the growth rate of the money supply, a. inflation and unemployment both rise.b. inflation rises and unemployment falls.c. only employment rises.d. only inflation rises.
