Question

when government intervention makes currency worthless, this condition is called
deflation.
hyperinflation.
cost - push inflation.
demand - pull inflation.

Explanation:

• Deflation is a decrease in the general price level, so it's not when currency becomes worthless.
• Hyperinflation is extremely high and typically accelerating inflation, which can make a currency nearly worthless due to rapid loss of value.
• Cost - push inflation is caused by rising production costs (like wages or raw materials), leading to price increases, but not to the extent of making currency worthless.
• Demand - pull inflation is due to excess demand relative to supply, causing price rises, not making currency worthless.

Answer:

B. hyperinflation.
