(b). The capital stock will move towards the steady state level
of capital if it"s below or above the steady state. For example(as
shown in the table)- for all the amount of capital stock below
steady state, savings are greater than depreciation rate; so
capital capital stock can be increased and it will move towards
steady state. Similarly if the capital stock is above steady state,
then depreciation is greater than savings; so capital stock will
fall and move towards steady state. Only at the STEADY STATE level
of capital total savings and depreciation are equal, hence there
should be no change in capital stock.

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....
