Consider an economy in a steady state with population growth rate η, a rate of capital depreciation δ , and a rate of technological progress g. a) At the steady state Δk = 0, where k equals capital per effective worker. What condition must be met for this to hold? Describe the condition in words as well as mathematical expressions. b) Describe in words what is maximized at the Golden Rule level of k. c) What mathematical condition must be...

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...

An economy has the following production function: Y = K1/2L 1/2 There is no technological growth in the economy. Some more additional details known about the economy: • The savings rate (s) is equal to 0.4. • The population growth rate (n) is equal to 0.03. • Depreciation rate (δ) is at 0.07. (a) Derive the function of output per worker in terms of capital per worker. (b) Find the steady state levels of capital per worker, output per worker...

d) (7pts) Suppose that the production function is Y = 12K1/3 (EL)23 and capital lasts for an average of 10 years so that 10% of capital wears out every year (depreciate rate = 1/10 = 0.1 or 10%). Assume that the rate of growth of population is 4 percent, and the rate of technological growth is 2 percent. 1. (1pt) Derive the equation for output per effective worker y = Y/(EL) = f(k). 2. (3pts) Calculate the Golden Rule level...

3) Consider the Solow model with population growth and labor-augmenting technological progress. Suppose that the aggregate production function is Cobb- Douglas, i.e. Y = AK"(E · L)1-a, where A is a constant, while E denotes technological progress and grows at rate g. Labor grows at an exogenous rate n, and capital depreciates at rate d. As usual, people consume a fraction (1 – s) of their income. a. Use a graph similar to what we have seen in class to...

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.
