A.) supply-side

Explanation:

Fiscal policy in economics refers to the use of government expenditures (spending) and revenues (taxation) in order to influence macroeconomic conditions such as Aggregate Demand (AD), inflation, and employment within a country. Fiscal policy is in relation to the Keynesian macroeconomic theory by John Maynard Keynes.

A fiscal policy affects combined demand through changes in government policies, spending and taxation which eventually impacts employment and standard of living plus consumer spending and investment.

A supply-side economist can be defined as economists who believes that the ability and willingness of the producers of goods and services to manufacture or produce sets the pace for the economic growth of a country.

This ultimately implies that, increasing the supply of goods and services would cause an economic growth for a country.

Hence, a supply-side fiscal policy is typically designed to create an outward shift in the production possibilities curve (PPC) and shift the aggregate supply (AS) curve to the left.

Generally, a supply-side fiscal policy takes a longer period of time to affect the economy of a country.
