- In the Solow model, population growth leads to steadystate growth in total output, but not in output per worker. Do you think this would still be true if the production function exhibited increasin g or decreasing returns to scale? Explain.The Accelerated and Shared Growth Initiative for South Africa (AsgiSA) was launched by Deputy President Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka in February 2006. After research and discussion with stakeholders, government identified six “binding constraints on growth” that needed to be addressed so as to progress in its desire for shared growth and to achieve its target of halving unemployment and poverty between 2004 and 2014. This could be achieved if the economy grew at an average rate of at least 4.5% in the period to 2009, and by an average of 6% in the period 2010 to 2014.These binding constraints were: deficiencies in government’s capacity the volatility of the currency low levels of investment infrastructure and infrastructure services shortages of suitably skilled graduates, technicians and artisans insufficiently competitive industrial and services sectors and weak sector strategies inequality and marginalisation, resulting in many economically marginalised people being unable to…The Accelerated and Shared Growth Initiative for South Africa (AsgiSA) was launched by Deputy President Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka in February 2006.

What did remain for the additional contribution of (Log A + alpha x Log K) assuming alpha =0.3? Guess the Log A and Log K and justify your guesses taking into consideration the main specifies of the Turkish economy in 1930’s.In an economy characterized by a Cobb-Douglas production function (without technical progress), labour’s share of income is 70% and the depreciation rate is 3% per annum. The economy is in a steady state with GDP growth at 4% per year and with a capital output ratio of 2. Find the saving rate and the marginal product of capital. At time t the saving rate in this economy increases to a new constant level, with the outcome that the economy converges to the Golden Rule steady state. What is the new savings rate, capital output ratio and marginal product of capital?
- The steady occurs when the economy is in equilibrium. Specifically, the steady state refers to the situation where K/N and Y/N are constant. K/N will not change when investment per worker equals depreciation per worker. During the adjustment process, the growth rates of Y, Y/N, and K/N will all be negative. Once the steady state is reached, these variables are constant and the growth rates will be zero. True FalseSuppose a Solow economy is initially at its steady state k∗, and suddenly is hit by a decrease in the depreciation rate δ, from δ to δ1. This change does not alter any of the other exogenous parameters in the model Depict this situation in a graph What happens to steady state level of capital per capita in this situation? What happens to the level of capital per capita over time? Depict this in a graph and explain intuitively.In the period of 1930-1949 the average GDP growth in Turkish economy was 4.9% and the population growth 1.8% which be considered as the average growth rate of the labour. What did remain for the additional contribution of (Log A + alpha x Log K) assuming alpha =0.3?
- Explain why in the period of 2014-2018 the TFP contribution to GDP growth diminished to 0.8 percentage points the lowest scored observed in Turkish economic history while Log K is at 7.2%, a very high growth score?Turkish growth performance in 1980’s Explain why in the period of 2014-2018 the TFP contribution to GDP growth diminished to 0.8 percentage points the lowest scored observed in Turkish economic history while Log K is at 7.2%, a very high growth score?Choose the following opton: 1) In the very long run, across the next fifty years, a country’s economic standard of living as measured by Real GDP Per Person can grow steadily as a result of sustained growth in one of the following two values. The correct focus of growth policy will be to promote: (a) Labor Productivity (b) Total Labor Effort 2) The correct answer to Q#1 is a consequence of which feature of any country’s economy. In the very long run, fifty years and beyond: a) Total Labor Effort (Aggregate Labor Hours) can grow faster than a country’s Population. b) Total Labor Effort (Aggregate Labor Hours) cannot grow faster than a country’s Population.
