Which of the following is a true statement? Multiple Choice Economists who support economic growth say that it is the most practical route to the higher standards of living that the vast majority of people desire. Most economists believe that the recent rise in the average rate of productivity growth implies an end to the business cycle. Most economists believe that increases in real GDP actually produce decreases in overall economic well-being because of spillover costs. Mainstream economists disagree as to whether the rate of productivity growth was higher between 1995 and 2012 or between 1973 and 1995.

Assume that the growth rate of the capital stock in each period is determined by the level of output in the previous period. 1) An economy of 80 million people has ten percent of them engaged in research and development, where their productivity is 0.0035. The economy is on a balanced growth path, when suddenly 2.88 million people move from goods production into R&D, raising the fraction there to 13.6 percent. In the one period that begins with this labor reallocation, the growth rate of output is ________. [Refer to the instruction above.] A) 2.8% B) 0.0% C) 3.8% D) 2.2%

In developed countries the phenomenon of population aging is happening because of longer life expectancy as well as lower birth rates and lower population growth rates. 1. Explain how the life-cycle theory can be used to deduce that while longer expected life increases individual and aggregate savings, a lower population growth rate may increase per capita saving in the short run but reduces it in the long run. 2.
