    The correct answer is option c.

    Explanation:

    With an increase in the taxes the equilibrium income will decline by the amount of tax multiplier into the change in tax rates.

    The tax multiplier is a measure to show the change in aggregate production due to change in tax rates.

    It is calculated by the ratio of marginal propensity to consume and marginal propensity to save or 1-MPS.
