a) (ii) & (iv) only

b) (i), (ii) & (iv) only

c) (i) only

d) (i) & (iv) only

Answer: (b)

A liquidity trap is a situation where the Central Bank wants to increase the money supply in the economy in case of recession but fails to lower the interest rate as the interest rates (repo rate and bank deposit rates) almost reaches zero. This makes the monetary policy ineffective.

In such a situation people would like to hold on to their cash (maybe in savings deposits in banks that is also called cash and not the fixed deposit) and may not spend money as there is almost zero or negative inflation.

(Actually, people are not willing to spend and demand in the economy declines, that is why the economy enters into a liquidity trap).

So, (i), (ii) & (iv) statements are true.
