Abstract
In
macroeconomics, the government is recognized as a key player in influencing
economic and social variables. This research examines the effects of taxation
on government revenues and its relationship with budget deficits. Given the
importance of taxes as a primary source of revenue for governments and the need
for diversification in revenue sources, analyzing the impacts of taxation on
economic growth and stability is essential. The findings of this study indicate
that tax policies can have significant effects on the economic behavior of
individuals and firms. An increase in tax rates may reduce the incentive for
investment and production; however, it can simultaneously generate greater tax
revenues for the government, which can help cover public expenditures and
reduce budget deficits. This research employs dynamic system models to analyze
the complex relationships between taxation, government revenues, and budget
deficits, identifying long-term patterns in this context. The results of this
study can assist policymakers in making optimal decisions regarding tax collection
and budget deficit management. Additionally, the investigation of strategies to
improve the economic conditions of countries and establish economic stability
in times of crisis is also addressed in this research. Overall, this study
highlights the significance of taxation as an effective tool for achieving
economic and social objectives.
