Detailed explanation-1: -In the most general sense (and assuming ceteris paribus conditions), an increase in aggregate demand corresponds with an increase in the price level; conversely, a decrease in aggregate demand corresponds with a lower price level.
Detailed explanation-2: -An increase in consumer spending will cause the AD curve to increase. As a result, output increases and unemployment decreases. Unfortunately, this positive AD shock also means that inflation increases: An increase in AD leads to an increase in real GDP and the price level.
Detailed explanation-3: -The reduction in aggregate demand or supply will cause unemployment to increase as the change in price level lead to a change in output. The price level decreases when aggregate demand decreases and increases when aggregate supply decreases.
Detailed explanation-4: -Demand-pull inflation explains rising prices in an economy as the result of increased aggregate demand that surpasses supply.
