Assume that a country's production function is Y = AK0.3L0.7. The ratio of capital to output is 4, the growth rate of output is 3 percent, and the useful life of capital is 20 years. 'A' is a technology constant that contributes to GDP (Y). A = 1 a) What is the marginal product of capital in this situation? b) If the economy is in a steady state, what must be the saving rate? c) If the economy decides to...

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...

Consider an economy that is characterized by the Solow Model. The (aggregate) production function is given by: Y = 6K1/3L2/3 In this economy, workers consume 80% of income and save the rest. The labour force is growing at 2% per year while the annual rate of capital depreciation is 5.5%. a) Solve for the steady state capital-labour ratio and consumption per worker. The economy is in its steady state as described in part (a). Suppose both the stock of capital...
