Which one of the following is known as the recession occurring two times with a small gap in between?

  • A.Deep Recession
  • B.Deflation
  • C.Double-dip Recession
  • D.Double Inflation

Answer: C

Correct answer: Double-dip Recession

A double-dip recession is one in which the economy contracts, recovers briefly, and then contracts again before the recovery is established - a W shape rather than the usual V or U. It is more damaging than a single recession of the same total depth, because the second fall arrives when confidence, reserves and policy room have already been spent on the first. Deflation is a fall in the general price level, which is a different phenomenon.
