A rightward shift in the aggregate supply curve is best explained by an increase in productivity.

Increased productivity means that firms can produce more goods and services at lower costs, which shifts the aggregate supply curve to the right.

In contrast, increases in business taxes, nominal wages, and the price of imported resources would generally shift the aggregate supply curve to the left, as they increase production costs.
