Increasing tax threshold/rates = micro/macro? (1 Viewer)

[Advv]

I got my trials back and I wrote that increasing tax rates = Microeconomic reform. I read the other thread where someone questioned whether superannuation is micro/macro but I don't know if the same thing applies for increasing the tax threshold/rates.

Any help will be appreciated.

It Is Micro.

Do you know any textbooks that say that?

My school uses the Tim Dixon one.

I just need some proof to show my teacher.

the tax system is a macro tool......

The tax is a fiscal tool.

Tax reform is put into place in the yearly budget.

All tax reforms are microeconomic policies. I think you are having the same issue as me, but your on a pretty clear cut issue, where as mine is on compulsory superannuation.

Congrats on new comp

Income tax = manipulate disposable income = macroeconomic (manipulates AD)

Ssuperannuation = same

TAX incentives for industries = microeconomic

tax reform e.g. introduction of gst and as a result decreasing tax brackets i believe is a micro tool (unsure)

but i am positive that increasing tax rates or giving tax cuts comes as part of the fiscal budget - tool of fical policy therefore macro policy not micro.
