Consider an economy described the following parameters: S=0.2 n=0.01 and 6 =0.04. The production function is given by y = k0.5 so that the steady-state y*=4 and the steady-state k*=16. At present k=12. Determine the percent rate of growth of y at this instant. Enter the value with two decimal places without the % sign. If the growth is negative, do enter the negative sign! Answer: -1.16 Be careful to find the growth rate of y. First you must find...

Use your answer to part (a) to solve for the steady-state value of y as a function of s, n, g, and ?. c. Two neighboring economies have the above production function, but they have different parameter values. Atlantis has a saving rate of 28 percent and a population growth rate of 1 percent...
Consider an economy described by the production function: Y = F(K, L) = (0.25 0.75 a. What is the per-worker production function? y= b. Assuming no population growth or technological progress, find the steady-state capital stock per worker (k*), output per worker (y*), and consumption per worker (c*) as a function of the saving rate and the depreciation rate. k* = y* =
2. Suppose an economy described by the Solow model has the following production function and capital law of motion, with the variables as defined in class: Y =K^(1/2)(LE)^(1/2) ∆k = sy − (δ + n + g)k The economy has a saving rate of 24 percent, a depreciation rate of 3 percent, a population growth rate of 2 percent, and a growth rate of labor productivity of 1 percent. (a) At what rate do total output (Y ), output per...

1) Consider an economy with the following the production function: Y = F(K,L) = K^0.4L^0.6 a) Find output per worker b) Find the marginal product of capital c) Find the steady state level of capital per worker given a savings rate of 0.1, the depreciation rate of 0.2, and population growth of 0.05 d) Show graphically or analytically what will happen if there is a decrease in the rate of depreciation. What effect does this have on steady-state levels of...

2. (Population growth and technology growth) Consider an economy that is described by the production function Y depreciation rate of capital is 6 n 0.05 and the technology growth rate is g = 0.1 K (LE). Moreover the 0.15, the population growth rate is (a) What is the per effective worker production function, that is y ? What is the marginal product of capital, that is ? (b) If the saving rate is s 0.3, find...
Question 5. (4 points each) Consider the Solow model in Chapter 6. Production function is given by Y = A_KENZ The notations of variables are the same as the slides for Ch.6.The depreciation rate d is 0.1, the population growth rate n is 0.1, and the saving rate s is 0.2. The level of productivity is constant, so At = 2 all the time. (1) Compute the steady-state level of capital per person k*. (2) Compute the steady-state level of...
Solow Growth Model D. Consider an economy with production characterized by function Y = AVKL, per capita output y = AVkt with rate of depreciation of capital 8, investment it = sy. = sAvky, capital transition function kt+1 - k = SAVk - Okt, where s is savings ratio. 1. Putting per capita output (income) y on the y-axis and k on the x-axis, graph the curves for depre- ciation and investment. Label steady state capital k* and steady state...
