Explanation / Answer

21.

Since at point A, economy is in short run equilibrium because AD and SRAS cuvre is equal at point A.

But for achieving long run equilibrium Congress and president need to use expansionary fiscal policy which would shift AD curve rightward and at new equilibrium points Las, SRAS and AD curve intersects each other. An increase in government transfer payment are examples of expansionary fiscal policy.

Hence option c is the correct answer.
