b. An increase in the money supply during a period of high unemployment and excess industrial capacity
c. An increase in the price of oil caused by a war in the Middle East, assuming that the Fed attempts to keep interest rates constant by accommodating inflation
d. An increase in taxes and a cut in government spending supported by a cooperative Fed acting to keep output from falling
