Answer:

The correct answers are numbers (I), (II), (III), and (IV).

Step-by-step explanation:

Business cycles are the ups and downs of the overall economy. Those fluctuations are caused by "shocks" that are the result of the slow periods coming after irregular innovations, increases or decreases in productivity levels, increase or decrease of money supply, and major political events like war.
