Solution

The correct answer is A. According to the quantity equation of money (MV = PY), if the velocity of money (V) is constant and the money supply increases, then the price level (P) must also increase to maintain the equation's balance. This increase in the price level is inflation. Therefore, in the long run, an increase in the growth of the money supply will increase inflation by the same amount if velocity is constant.
