Using the labor market, the production function Real GDP = T (L, K), and the LRAS curve, describe the process by which a decrease in income taxes impacts economic growth


Lower taxes on income shifts the supply of labor curve rightward, causing the equilibrium quantity of labor to increase. With more labor working, the economy would move up along its production function to a higher level of Real GDP. More Real GDP corresponds to a shifting of the LRAS curve rightward (economic growth).
