No, that's not it. An increase in productivity or technological change leads to an increase in profit per unit of output. SRAS shifts to the right.

No, that's not it. Factors that shift aggregate demand to the left include: #5) Expansionary monetary policy (i.e. decrease in money supply or increase in interest rates).

No, that's not it. An increase in taxes shifts the AD curve leftward, which will cause a decline in price level and real GDP.

No, that's not it. An increase in household wealth will shift AD to the right. This pulls the price level up, then as wages adjust upward the cost of production increases, pulling SRAS leftward. We are left at the original real GDP level, but a new higher price.
Great job!
