Step 1

the effect of taxes could be understood through the consumption function as mentioned below:

C=c0+c1yd

Where, c0 is autonomous spendingc1 is marginal propensity to consumeyd is disposable income

further, disposable income could further be classified as yd = Y-T

Where Y is income and T is taxes

Now, the consumption function could be written as:

C=c0+c1(Y-T)
