Exercise 1: Solow model . Consider an economy whose production function is defined by Y (t) = F (K (t), L (t)) = K (t) 1 − α · L (t) α. with 0 <α <1. In this economy, the population grows at the following rate: L (t) = n + β where n and β are strictly positive constants and k (t) represents capital per capita: k (t) = L (t). Moreover, a constant part of the product is...
