Problem Set 8 1. (Population growth but no technology growth) Consider an economy that is described by the production function Y = K L. Moreover the de preciation rate of capital is 8 = 0.05 and the population growth rate is n=0.05 (there is no technology growth) (a) What is the per-worker production function, that is y = ¥? What is the marginal product of capital, that is 8X? (b) If the saving rate is 8...

1. Consider the simple version of the Solow Growth Model discussed in class summarized by these four equations: Consumers save a fraction s of output: 1 = sy Capital grows as follows: K' = 1 + (1 - 8)K Firms use capital to make output: Y = AK 0.3 There is no government or trade: Y = C+/ where Y is GDP, / is investment, C is consumption, s is the savings rate, K is the capital stock this year,...

An economy is described by the standard Solow model without technological progress and without population growth. You are given the information that the savings rate dropped to a lower level in this economy, but you don’t know by how much it did so. Suppose that prior to the drop in s the economy was in a steady-state with a capital stock per worker higher than the Golden Rule level. a. In a graph which should include the production function, the...

1. (45 points) Consider the closed-economy one-period macroeconomic model developed in class. The consumer is endowed with h units of time, and chooses consumption C and leisure ` to maximize U = log(C) + θlog(`), subject to the budget constraint C = wNs + π. Production is described by Y = zNd . Government spending G is financed with a proportional revenue tax (tax rate τ ) on the firm. (a) (10) Find the firm’s optimal demand for labor Nd...
