Which of the following scenarios can support sustainable economic growth?

Select the correct answer using the code given below:

a) (i) & (ii) only

b) (ii) & (iii) only

c) (ii) only

d) All of the above

Answer: (c)

Deflation is bad for economic growth. Because when prices start declining people postpone their purchase decisions and companies postpone their investment decisions.

This leads to a decrease in demand in the economy which hurts economic growth.

Low and moderate inflation is good for economic growth as it creates demand in the economy and people are also willing to save money in banks which ultimately increases investment.

Galloping or Hyperinflation eats away the savings of the people as they spend too much money in buying goods and services which ultimately decreases investment. Banks also do not offer higher interest rates (than inflation) in such cases and people do not keep money in banks as they do not get any real return.

So, only (ii) statement is true.
