Assume there is a second economy ( country B ) with everything identical to country A except for the rate of population growth , which is 2 percent . Answer the following questions for country B. Assume both countries start a k = 0 , which country grows more in the short run ( before steady state is reached ) , as given by the rate of growth of output per worker ? ( hint : the further away from steady state , the faster the growth towards it ). O. Country A O. Same for both O. Country B
Consider the following (made-up) statistics for some econ-omies. Assume the exponent on capital is 1/3 and that the labor composition is unchanged. For each economy, compute the growth rate of TFP.(a) A European economy: gY/L = 0.03, gK/L = 0.03.(b) A Latin American economy: gY/L = 0.02, gK/L = 0.01.(c) An Asian economy: gY/L = 0.06, gK/L = 0.15.
In 1998, Brazil had a per capita GDP of about $4,500, compared to per capita GDP of about $28,000 in the US. (A) If per capita growth were to average 2% per year indefinitely in the US and 5% per year in Brazil, how many years would it take Brazil to catch up with the US? (B) Using the assumptions of the Cobb-Douglas production function, how fast would capital stock have to grow for per capita GDP to rise 5% per year? How does that compare with capital stock growth of 3% per year in the US (assume technology advances 1% per year in both countries)? (C) In mature industrialized societies, the capital/output ratio is approximately 3.0. If the average depreciation rate is 0.04, what would be the current saving and investment ratio in the US? What would it be in Brazil if per capita GDP rose 5% per year?
Suppose that , z the marginal product of efficiency units of labor, increases in the endogenous growth model. What effects does this have on the rates of growth and the levels of human capital, consumption, and output? Explain your results.
In the Solow economic model, id like to know the relationship between the rate of population growth and the steady state level of income. I know that when the rate of population growth grow, then the breakeven investment line goes up, which decreses investment and capital per worker, but what does it do to the income level and the steady state rate of growth?
If Y = A*(K*L)^.5 a. What is the equation for the steady state capital per worker k* in terms of savings rate deprectation rate population growth rate and technology? b. If technology doubles how much does the steady state of capital increase by?
This question refers to the Solow–Swan model with constant technology. Imagine the model is in steady state and the population growth rate rises. As a result the steady-state level of real GDP per capita will: a. fall b. rise c. stay the same d. can’t say because we need to know what will happen to the steady-state level of capital per person and, in the absence of that information, we can’t answer the question
Suppose 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.
Suppose the economy is on a balanced growth path in the Romer model, and then, in the year 2030, ̄l (lower case L bar) decreasesimmediately and permanently to the new level ̄l′ (lower case L bar one). (a) Solve for the new growth rate of knowledge and yt. (b) Make a graph of yt over time using a ratio scale.
Assume that a E (0, 1). Draw a diagram that describes the evolution of kt, and show that there exists a unique steady state, k* > 0. Label properly. Find the expressions for the steady state variables k*, y*, and c* in terms of the parameters of the model. , Now, assume that α = 1. Draw a diagram that describes the evolution of kt, and show that income per worker can grow indefinitely in this case. Label properly.
. Using the Solow growth model suppose that there is a hurricane coming toward a city. Because it is fully anticipated a lot of the people can leave and come back safely, but a lot of physical capital (K) is destroyed (buildings cannot move). Show graphically what the Solow model predicts will happen to the steady state. Does the poverty trap model have any different predication? Compare this graphically.
Draw a well labeled graph that illustrates the steady state of the solow model with population growth. Use the graph to find what happens to steady state capital per worker and income per worker in response to each of the following exogenous changes D. A one time permanent improvement in technology increases the amount of output that can be produced from any given amount of capital and labor. Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution.
