Consider a two-period lived representative agent for an economy, whose preferences for consumption are described by the lifetime utility function U = InC1 + InC2 a. Compare the effects of a temporary and a permanent income fall on current account. Suppose that the output of the economy in the two periods are 100 (Y1) and 100 (Y2), and r is 5%. b. Does the economy run a trade balance deficit or surplus in period 1? How about period 2? Explain...

1. Consider an agent who values consumption in period 0 and 1 according to the following utility function: u(co, C)In(Co)+8 In(c1) is a discount factor (5 < 1) which indicates that the agnet prefers to consume today more than he can tomorrow. Suppose that the agent is given a total wealth today of w and that he may save any portion of this money in order to consume tomorrow. If he saves money he is paid interest r. Thus the...
