Part F and G
Step by step
Solved in 4 steps
- i need part C,D,E,F,G In the Solow growth model, output Y is produced using capital K and labour L.Assume the production function is Y =√K√L, which has total factor productivityconstant over time. The change over time in the capital stock is ∆K = I−δK, whereI is investment and δ is the depreciation rate. The labour force L is constant overtime. Investment I is equal to saving S, which is a fraction s of income.Let k = K/L and y = Y/L denote capital per worker and output per worker. In thisquestion, assume that δ = 1. Capital can be used for production and generates anincome for its owner before it depreciates.(a) Show that y =√k and ∆k = s√k − k, and solve for the steady-statevalues of k and y where ∆k = 0.(b) Using a diagram, explain intuitively why there is a steady statewhere growth in output per worker is zero, and why the economy convergesto this steady state in the long run.Total consumption divided by the number of workers is given by c = (1 − s)y.(c) Using your answer…which statement \s are true. use graphs to exlain a. In the Solow growth model, the saving rate is a crucial determinant of the economy's long-run growth rate of output per worker. b. In the endogenous growth model , the representative firm sets the wage so that the demand and supply of efficiency units of labour are equal. c. In the endogenous growth model , there is no steady state of the economy as human capital will always continue to grow forever. d. The assumption of Constant Returns to Scale technology implies that the marginal product of factor imput is always decreasing.Consider the Solow growth model with concave production function as studied in class. Supposethe economy is initially in the picture below, and currently has the level of capital stock of K0. What wouldhappen to the dynamics of capital accumulations when depreciation rate increases? Graphically denote thedirection and the speed of change/accumulation/decumulation of the capital stock, then verbally explain whythey move like so.
- Q) Suppose that the depreciation rate increase. In the Solow growth model, determine the effects of this on the quantity of capital per worker (k) and on output per worker (y) in the steady state. Show with graphs Note:- copy paste answer not provided. Give me your own words and correctly explains.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.Consider the basic Solow model. Assume that Country A has a production function as following. Y = A√K Where A represents the technology available in the country and & the aggregate capital. Let the national saving rate be equal to 30%, s = 0.3. Also, assume that capital depreciates at a constant rate of 3%, delta = 0.03. a) For this question, assume A = 1. According to the basic Solow model we learned in class, what is the steady state level of capital and output?
- Consider the following Solow diagram, indicating two sep-arate savings rates, 0.2 and 0.4: Suppose the savings rate is 0.2. At the steady state, what is capital per worker? What is output per worker? How much is saved per worker? Suppose the population growth rate is equal to the depreciationrate. Solve for n and d.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.In this problem, we distinguish between labor and population in the Solow growth model. A proportion of the population, a, between zero and one, works. The production function is now written as Y = A(K^1/3)[(aL)^2/3] (a) How does an increase in a from 0.3 to 0.6 change steady state GDP? (b) Does it change the steady-state capital? Explain. (c) Suppose a rises steadily over time. How do you think would affect the growth rate of GDP?
- The Solow Growth Model is a model that is often used to explain the theoretical relationship between several factors that determine a country's economic growthcountry.(a) Explain what you know about the Solow Growth Model and what are the most important determinants of a country's long-term growth rate?(b) Within the framework of the Solow Growth Model, how does population growth affect a country's economic growth rate?(c) Still within the framework of the Solow Growth Model, how does technological progress affect a country's growth rate?Solow's Growth Model provides the hypothesis that capital accumulation can boost economic growth. a) Through a system of mathematical equations, describe the production side of the output of the Solow economy! b) Explain both through narrative and mathematical equation systems how savings rates can affect per capita income growth!QUESTION 1 (10 marks) Consider the Solow growth model without population growth or technological change. The parameters of the model are given by s = 0.2 (savings rate) and δ = 0.05 (depreciation rate). Let k denote capital per worker; y output per worker; c consumption per worker; i investment per worker. a. Rewrite production function per-worker terms. b. Find the steady-state level of the capital stock, kss
