What does "convergence of the rich economies" mean in the context of the Solow-Model. Please explain thoroughly.
Homework Answers
The Solow-Model states that the convergence of marginal product of capital relative to labor is lower in the rich countries compared to poor countries, thus the rich will accumulate less capital and grow at a slower rate than the poor. Thus when the rich and poor countries approach with the same amount of capital the rich country's growth will be quite slowly (output and capital grow slower than n); while the poor country's growth will be relatively faster (output and capital grow faster than n).

In the Solow Model, capital is subject to _____________________. So as you add additional units of capital to other fixed resources, there comes a point where more capital does not increase output as much as it did before. A) increasing returns B) the endowment effect C) diminishing returns 2) The Solow Model implies that countries with smaller initial capital stocks should grow rapidly. This implies that: A) poorer countries should eventually “catch-up” to richer countries (conditional convergence) B) poorer countries...

3. (Steady state in the Solow model) Consider two economies identical in everything except the production function. Economy 1 has a production function F(K, L)KoL1-a, economy 2 has a production function G(K, L)-aK(1-a)L. For both economies capital grows according to (1). a) Write output per worker as a function of capital per worker for both economies. b) Compute the steady state value of capital per worker for both these economies or, if it does not exist, show graphically that it...
