  • A. Business inventory accumulate
  • B. Unemployment exists
  • C. Price of consumer goods rise

Explanation

When aggregate supply exceeds aggregate demand, firms cannot sell all current output, so unintended inventories accumulate. This may later cause reduced production and unemployment, but inventory accumulation is the immediate identity-based result.
