- Consider our graph of the basic Solow growth model. On the graph above: y represents real output (or income) per worker; y=F(k) is the production function; k is the capital stock per worker; s is the savings rate; δ is the rate of depreciation of capital; ‘i’ represents business investment (purchases of capital) per worker); ‘LF’ stands for Loanable Funds. (For purposed of intuition, think of capital as ‘machines.’) If we started out with a capital (per worker) stock lower than the steady-state stock ( , above), we would expect to see which of the following happen over time? Group of answer choices A) Positive growth rates while the capital stock increases. B) Negative growth rates while the capital stock increases. C) Negative growth rates while the capital stock decreases. D) Positive growth rates while the capital stock stays less than the steady-state level. E) Positive growth rates while the capital stock decreases.Consider an economy that has access to a production technology Y = AKαL1−α where Y is output, A is the level of technology, K is capital and L is the amount of labor in the economy. Capital evolves according to K˙ = sY (thus, the depreciation rate δ = 0). The x˙ population growth rate is n. (Throughout, gx = x , where x can be any of the variables in the model.) (a) Assume that technology is determined by A = BKφ What sort of endogenous growth model is this? Find K/K in terms of the K, L, and other parameters of the model.Consider the following Solow diagram, indicating two sep-arate savings rates, 0.2 and 0.4: Suppose the savings rate is 0.2. At the steady state, what is capital per worker? What is output per worker? How much is saved per worker? Suppose the population growth rate is equal to the depreciationrate. Solve for n and d.
- Suppose the Solow model describes an economy. The population grows at a 0.5% rate, and its labour efficiency grows at a 1% rate. Thus, in the steady state, capital per worker grows at a ____ rate. a. 1.5% b. 0% c. 0.5% d. 1%In the Solow growth model, suppose that the per-worker production function is given by y=zk2/3 . The saving rate is s, depreciation rate is d, and population growth rate is n. Calculate the per capita capital (k) and output per worker (y) in the steady state.i need part C,D,E,F,G In the Solow growth model, output Y is produced using capital K and labour L.Assume the production function is Y =√K√L, which has total factor productivityconstant over time. The change over time in the capital stock is ∆K = I−δK, whereI is investment and δ is the depreciation rate. The labour force L is constant overtime. Investment I is equal to saving S, which is a fraction s of income.Let k = K/L and y = Y/L denote capital per worker and output per worker. In thisquestion, assume that δ = 1. Capital can be used for production and generates anincome for its owner before it depreciates.(a) Show that y =√k and ∆k = s√k − k, and solve for the steady-statevalues of k and y where ∆k = 0.(b) Using a diagram, explain intuitively why there is a steady statewhere growth in output per worker is zero, and why the economy convergesto this steady state in the long run.Total consumption divided by the number of workers is given by c = (1 − s)y.(c) Using your answer…

Why saving rates differ across countries d. All of these answers are correct e. Why population growth rates differ across countries Using the Solow model, if, in time, t=0, the initial capital stock is 100, investment is 25, the population is normalized to 1, and e 10 percent, then capital accumulation from period t=0 to period t=1 is: a. 15 b. 115 c. 35 d. D. 0 e. -15Consider the continuous-time Solow growth model as discussed in the lecture. The economy is on its balanced growth path with labor augmenting technological progress at rate g and population growth at rate n. The depreciation rate is 8. (a) Derive the dynamic equation of aggregate capital K. (b) Normalize the aggregate capital K by technology A and population L and denote the capital per unit of effective labor as k = K/(AL). Derive the dynamic equation of k .(c) Use the phase diagram to illustrate the steady state level of k and the dynamics of k if k starts from a level lower than the steady state level. (d) Suppose that the economy is on its balanced growth path at time to. Unex- pectedly, the population growth rate drops down to n' <n at to, stays at n' until t1, and resumes to n after t1. How does k respond, between to and t1, and afterwards?Suppose we started out at the steady state capital stock in the basic Solow growth model (see graph a few questions ago). If there subsequently were an increase in the demand for loanable funds due to more favorable tax treatment of business investment, ceteris paribus (i.e., holding other factors constant, including no shift in the supply of loanable funds), then as we move to the new steady state over time we would expect to see Group of answer choices A) economic growth rates turn negative as we move toward the new steady state and the nation’s capital stock to decrease from its current level. B) economic growth rates turn positive as we move toward the new steady state and the nation’s capital stock to decrease from its current level. C) economic growth rates turn positive as we move toward the new steady state and the nation’s capital stock to grow from its current level. D) economic growth rates turn negative as we move toward the new steady state and the nation’s…
