Refer to the figure above. Suppose that output per effective worker in the economy is at point C. Suppose nothing else changes in the model exogenously. Which of the following statements is correct?
Capital per effective worker will not change and will remain at its current level |
Capital per effective worker must decrease over time |
More information is needed to determine what will happen to capital per effective worker |
Capital per effective worker must increase over time |
Solution: Capital per effective worker will not change and will remain at its current level
Explanation: At the steady state output per effective worker will not change and production function or the savings rate remain at its current level

Refer to the figure above. Suppose the economy is currently in steady state. Furthermore, suppose the current savings rate (the one depicted in the figure) is higher than the golden rule savings rate. Which of the following statements is correct?

5. Calibrated Cobb-Douglas Growth Model Assume an economy has the following production function: Y = F(K, AL) = K 0.4 (AL)0.6. (a) Write down the production function per effective worker. (20 marks) (b) For this economy, the savings rate is 20%, the depreciation rate is 10% per year, the population growth rate is 2% per year, and the technology growth rate is 3% per year. Calculate the steady-state capital stock per effective worker, output per effective worker, and consumption per...
Question 3 : Solow model with long-run TFP growth [20 marks] Suppose output is given by Y = K}(AN) As in the basic model, the workforce grows at rate n, capital depreciates at rate d and the savings rate is s. In addition, suppose that TFP grows at a constant rate g. That is: ΔΑ A9 We will refer to the product AN as the "effective workforce". It follows that the effective workforce grows at rate n+g. a. Express the...
