- Assume that an economy is described by the Solow model in the long run. The rate of population growth in this economy is n technological growth is g rates of total GDP, GDP per worker, and GDP per effective worker? 0.01 and the rate of 0.02. What are the long-run (steady state) growth rates of total GDP, GDP per worker, and GDP per effective worker?Suppose an economy described by the Solow model is in a steady state with population growth n of 1.8 percent per year and technological progress g of 1.8 percent per year. Total output and total capital grow at 3.6 percent per year. Suppose further that the capital share of output is 1/3. If you used the growth-accounting equation to divide output growth into three sources—capital, labor, and total factor productivity—how much would you attribute to each source?The Solow model without exogenous productivity growth predicts that rich countries with more capital will grow faster than poor countries with less capital, assuming other economic conditions are equal. Is this statement true or false? Explain.
- Suppose an economy described by the Solow model is in steady state with population growth n of 1.8 percent per year and technological progress g of 1.8 percent per year. total output and total capital grow at 3.6 percent per year. suppose further that the capital share of output is 1/3. if you used the growth accounting equation to divide output growth into three sources- capital, labor, and total factor productivity- how much would you attribute to each source? compare your results to the figures we found for the united states in tables 9-2.If the population growth rate increases by 5% and the depreciation rate decreases by 5%, what happens to the steady-state, per-worker consumption in Solow's exogenous growth model?The validity and ability of the Solow Growth Model in explaining the long-term growth of a country has been tested empirically.(a) In the Solow Growth Model we are introduced to the concept of the Golden Rule; optimum level of saving and capital formation to support growth. Is this Golden Rule concept proven empirically?(b) From what we have learned from the Solow Growth Model, describe some policies that can improve a country's economic growth rate.
- when a country adds capital what is it doing to its productivity and GDP? Which variable in the Solow Model equation is it changing?The Solow Growth Model is an exogenous model of economic growth that analyzes changes in the level of output in an economy over time as a result of changes in the population growth rate, the savings rate, and the rate of technological progress. Consider the Solow model. a) Explain using a graph why there is a poverty trap in this model b)Describe how an economy such as one characterized by this model may break out of a poverty trap.There exist several drawbacks in the Solow growth model (Solow, 1956) that does not make the model provide satisfying answers to the central questions about economic growth. Explain the key problems with the Solow growth model that led to the emergence of the endogenous growth models (e.g., productive externalities and R&D models of endogenous growth)
- (III) Consider a version of the Solow growth model without technological change covered in lecture with a rate of population growth of zero (i.e. n=0). Assume that the country has been at the BGP for many years and that suddenly at time t ̅ there is a onetime increase in its population. Show how the economy will adjust to a new BGP by working with the modified system (per capita/worker variables). Show how capital per worker adjusts to the new Steady State level and how its growth rate changes over time.4.The Solow growth model differs from the Harrod-Domar because: a.Assumes that depreciation rate and population growth are exogenous b.Assumes that the rate of technological progress varies from country to country. c.Predicts that permanent growth is achievable only through technological progress d.Predicts that poorer countries will grow faster than richer countries.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…
