Explanation of Solution

Inflation is caused by the AD curve moving to the right as the money supply expands. Prices can increase when there is an imbalance between supply and demand for a certain commodity. The inflation that follows might bring forth further agony. Price levels fall to balance supply and demand when they are greater than equilibrium because consumers will want to hold onto more money than the bank has issued. However, if the pricing level is less than equilibrium, consumers retain less wealth than the bank has produced, as well as the price level rises to balance supply and demand and achieve equilibrium.
