The economy of Ghana is made up of three sectors namely Agriculture, Industry andServices. These three sectors contribute to the national output. For decades prior to the2000s, the Agricultural sector contributed the most to the national output. Sadly, inrecent years however, the sector has been the least contributor to national output.Trends in production of major food crops such as maize, rice and sorghum show thaton-farm productivity has stagnated and the exploitable difference between the actualand the potential output of most of the crops (yield gap) has widened. Low andinadequate levels of usage of productivity enhancing technologies such as quality seedsof improved varieties and fertilizer, thin extension services and weak market linkagescontributes to the poor agricultural performance. It was against this background thatthe NPP-led government implemented one of her flagship programmes “Planting for Food and Jobs”.The programme is primarily aimed at making subsidized improved…
One of your clients, a mining company with operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia, is concerned withthe current macroeconomic environment’s impact on their operations.

The economy of Zambia has two sectors, agriculture and industry. Consumers are the end users ofthe final output. The agriculture sector produces maize worth K16000 and milk worth K16000.Maize worth K4000 as well as milk worth K6000 is sold to consumers for direct consumption, andmaize worth K12000 and milk worth K10000 is sold to the industry as intermediate inputs in theproduction of mealie meal and butter respectively. The industry uses this maize to produce mealiemeal worth K32000 and uses milk to produce butter worth K18000 which are sold to consumersfor final consumption. In addition, the agriculture sector pays wages worth K20000, rent worthK4000 and earns profit equal to K8000. The industry sector pays wages worth K16000, rent worthK6000 and earns a profit of K6000.a) Calculate GDP for the above economy using the three approaches: product approach, incomeapproach, and expenditure approach.b) Peter was bragging to his wife that his country, Zambia, is doing better than his wife’s…

(50 points) Consider the two-period economy with investment discussed in class. Forthe sake of simplicity, assume that the utility is time separable and that the per-periodutility is equal to:u(C) = log CAssume also that the technology to produce the consumption goods has constant returns to scale. Moreover, capital is the only input to production. Hence the currentperiod technology can be represented as:Y = zK1where Y , K, and z stand for output, capital and total factor productivity in the currentperiod. The future period technology is akin to the current period technology. There isno government expenditure in the current and future period so that G = 0 and G0 = 0.Finally there is full capital depreciation, namely δ = 1.(a) (10 points) Write down the social planner’s problem.
