Suppose that the market for labor is initially in equilibrium. A decrease in the price of output will cause the equilibrium wage and the equilibrium quantity of labor to rise. and the equilibrium quantity of labor to fall. to rise and the equilibrium quantity of labor to fall. to fall and the equilibrium quantity of labor to rise.

Some economists believe that taxes have an important effect on labor supply. They argue that higher taxes cause people to want to work less and lower taxes cause them to want to work more. Considering that this view is correct and using the IS-LM and AD-SRAS-LRAS models, illustrate and explain how a decrease in taxes affects: a.) Labor supply, W/P, and Y b.) the IS-LM and AD-SRAS-LRAS curves c.) r, P, and I in the long run. (Assume an upward sloping SRAS curve.)
