g. Suppose that taxes are not exogenous as suggested at the beginning of this task but, rather, endogenous and that they are proportional to the income earned by households according to the following expression: T = tY where 0 < t < 1 is the tax rate. In words, describe how this change would affect your IS/LM model and the equilibrium in the economy. Compute again the equilibrium output and interest rate you computed in b) but by assuming that taxes are now proportional to income and that the tax rate is 8% (t=0.08). Comment on your findings.
