Choice B is wrong because there are many trade-offs in achieving macroeconomic goals. For example, increased economic growth and employment can cause high inflation and/or a current account deficit.

for governments to recognise that action is required in the first place
for political bodies to agree on what to do
for the policy to impact the economy
Choice D is wrong because expansionary fiscal policy will have a greater impact on real output if there is plenty of excess capacity in the economy.
