Solution: In the long run, consumption per capita reaches a steady state
Explanation: In the Solow Model's steady state, the consumption per capita and output per capita would stop growing. The Romer Models provides an explanation on how they can grow in continuity due to technological progress.

Consider the Solow growth model with the following production function where y is output. K is capital, s is the productivity and is labor. Assume that 0 < α < 1 Further, suppose that labor grows at a constant rate n. That is. 1 + n. Also, assume that capital depreciates at rate d and that gross investment in capital is fraction s of output. a Letting k-N, obtain the law of motion for capital accumulation...

Consider a country described by the Solow model. The production function is y = 29, where 0 <a < 1. Assume that capital depreciates at a rate 8 € (0,1). a) Write down this production function in levels instead of in per capita terms. Does it display constant returns to scale? Show it. What about if a = 1? b) Find the value of c (per capita consumption) in steady state. c) Find the level of per capita capital that...

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,...

Considering Solow Model with technological change. The steady-state level of income per effective labor ye = 5. The economy reaches the steady state in Year 99. The initial technology T(0) = 1 and T grows constantly at rate θ = 0.05. What is the income per capita, y, in Year 100? (Round to 1 decimal place)

1. Consider a country that is initially in steady state. Suppose the saving rate increases. Moreover, the population growth rate increases by 1% but the capital depreciation rate falls by 1%. According to the Solow–Swan model, the per capita capital stock increases, and the country moves to a new, higher steady state level of per capita income. Answer true, false, or uncertain. Please briefly explain your answer. 2. Consider the country of Solow, which is described by the Solow–Swan model....
