Suggested Answer: C

Government decisions and actions regarding the level of interest rates and supply of money in the economy.

Fiscal policy relates to taxation and its relationship to government expenditure.

The other two suggested answers: exchange rates and unemployment rates are a factor of other poli-cies; the size of coins and banknotes is beyond the scope of your syllabus and my knowledge. :)
