Answer: INCREASE; DECREASE

Explanation:An unexpected increase in the price of goods and services will cause a temporary output and employment,this is so because producers will respond to the rise in price by increasing the amount of goods and services supplied to the market,this will lead to a rise in employment.

An unexpected decrease in price level will lead to a decrease in the output by producers and employment will drop accordingly. This tries to show how price determines change in supply and employment.
