Option 2 : Inflationary gap

The correct answer is Option 2.

Inflationary gap

  • An inflationary gap exists when the demand for goods and services exceeds production due to factors such as higher levels of overall employment, increased trade activities, or elevated government expenditure.
  • Against this backdrop, the real GDP can exceed the potential GDP, resulting in an inflationary gap.
  • The amount by which the equilibrium level of real GDP exceeds the full employment level of GDP is called the Inflationary gap.

Recessionary Gap 

  • It can be defined as the difference between the real GDP and potential GDP at the full employment level. 
  • This is also known as the contractionary gap.
  • Real GDP is always outweighed by potential GDP because the economy’s aggregate output is always lower than the aggregate output that would be obtained at full employment.
