Fiscal policy refers to a government's spending and tax policies used to influence macroeconomic conditions and goals. It involves adjusting spending levels and tax rates to impact the economy. The goals of fiscal policy include achieving full employment, maintaining price stability and controlling inflation, promoting economic stability and growth, and ensuring equal distribution of resources. Fiscal policy is based on John Maynard Keynes' theory that government can influence the economy by increasing or decreasing taxes and public spending. This in turn can curb inflation, increase employment, and maintain a stable currency value.

HOW FISCAL POLICY WORKS:
Fiscal policy is based on the theories of British economist John Maynard Keynes. Fiscal policy is also known as Keynesian economics and this theory states that government can influence macroeconomic productivity levels by increasing and decreasing tax levels and public spending. This influence, in turn, curbs inflation, increases employment and maintains a healthy value of money.
OBJECTIVES OF FISCAL POLICY:
i. Full employment The first and foremost objective of fiscal policy in a developing economy is to achieve and maintain full employment in an economy. To reduce unemployment and under-employment, the state should spend sufficiently on social and economic overheads. These expenditures would help to create more employment opportunities and increase the productive efficiency of the economy. ii. Price stability and controlling inflation Deflation leads to a sharp decline in business activity. On the other extreme, inflation may hit the fixed income classes hard while benefiting speculators and traders. Fiscal policy has to be such as will maintain a reasonably stable price level thereby benefiting all sections of society.
iii. Economic stability and economic growth
Economic stability is another prime aim of a sound fiscal policy. This goal implies maintenance of full employment with relative price stabilization. Economic growth and stability are the twin objectives jointly pursued by a developing country’s fiscal policy. The forces stimulating growth process should be given a boost at a time while inflationary pressures are to be curbed.
iv. Ensuring equal distribution of resources
The purchasing power increases with a fair distribution of resources among different classes of society. This leads to high levels of production which lower the unemployment level.
