(A) but unemployment and prices too
(B) and also unemployment and prices
(C) but so have unemployment and prices
(D) and so also unemployment and prices
(E) but so did unemployment and prices
to show the contrast 'but ' is required instead of 'and', so B & D out.
among A, C, E, C is best as uses correct tense and the 'have' agrees with the plural subject 'unemployment and prices'
