Explanation:

Stagflation is described as a situation in which an economy has both an increase in inflation and a stagnation in economic production. Stagflation was first recognized in the 1970s when an oil shock produced fast inflation and high unemployment in many developed economies.

  • Option B is incorrect as a High level of inflation and unemployment is not caused by Low shock.
