Discuss the following statements:
a. The Keynesian multiplier is higher the higher is the degree of openness of the economy'.
b. 'There is no easy policy answer when it comes to dealing with a negative supply shock'.
Consider the following economy. The production function is F(K,L) = K0.3 Lº.7. The saving rate
and the depreciation rate are respectively: s = 0.10 and 8 = 0.07. Population growth is 1%, i.e.
n = 0.01.
c. Derive the capital accumulation equation for this economy.
d. Find the steady state value of the capital stock per capita.
e. Suppose that the initial capital stock per capita is: k = 1.5. Discuss the process of
convergence of the economy to the steady state using the appropriate diagram.
f. Calculate the optimal saving rate of the economy and discuss whether the economy at the
steady state over or under-accumulates capital.

Suppose the Japanese economy has been experiencing slow growth.

Assume there is a GDP gap of 1 trillion yen and the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.60. What advice should the head of the economic council give the Prime Minister?
