Solow growth model: 1. a. Draw the steady-state equilibrium by drawing the savings line and the investment line. Show the steady-state values of savings, investment and capital per worker. b. On the same graph, also draw the output per worker (or per-worker production function) line. At the steady-state, mark the level of consumption per worker and savings per worker. c.

MALTHUS AND SOLOW GROWTH MODEL
Malthusian Model of Growth Notation: Yt Aggregate output; Nt Population size; L¯ Land (fixed); ct Per capita consumption Production: Aggregate production function is Yt = F(Nt , Lt) = zN2/3 t L 1/3 t Population Dynamics: Nt+1 = g(ct)Nt Population growth function: g(ct) = (3ct) 1/3 Parameter Values: Land: L¯ = 1000 for all t. Productivity parameter: z = 1 ...

In the Solow growth model without population growth, if an economy has a steady-state value of the marginal product of capital (MPK) of 0.125, a depreciation rate of 0.1, and a saving rate of 0.225, then the steady-state capital stock per worker: Select one: a. is less than the Golden Rule level. O b. is greater than the Golden Rule level. c. could be either above or below the Golden Rule level. d. equals the Golden Rule level.

Consider the Solow growth model. Output at time t is given by the production function Yt = AK 1 3 t L 2 3 where Kt is total capital at time t, L is the labour force and A is total factor productivity. The labour force and total factor productivity are constant over time and capital evolves according the transition equation Kt+1 = (1 − d) ∗ Kt + It , where d is the depreciation rate. Every person saves...

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. Assume that an economy described by a Solow model has a per-worker production function given by y- k05, where y is output per worker and k is capital stock per worker (capital-labor ratio). Assume also that the depreciation rate δ is 5%. This economy has no technological progress and no population growth (n 0). Both capital and labor are paid for their marginal products and the economy has been in a steady state with capital stock per worker at...
