Answer 1

Answer: excess supply of money that will result in an increase in spending

Explanation:

The money market refers to the total amount of money that's in circulation in an economy at a particular time.

If the money supply increases, this implies that there'll be more money available for the people in the economy to spend. This ultimately leads to the increase in the demand for goods and services in an economy.

Therefore, the correct option will be "excess supply of money that will result in an increase in spending".
