if gdp is $500, the capital stock is $150, the savings rate is 20% and the rate of capital depreciation is 10%, by how much will the capital stock expand next period? do you expect output to rise or fall?
Homework Answers
Saving rate is 20% which means $100 will be saved. This will be invested so that capital stock increases by $100 to reach $250. however capital will depreciate by 10% of its original value which is $15. Thus capital stock will decrease by $15 and the final capital stock will be $235
This indicates that net investment will be $85 which will increase the output next period. Hence output will increase by $85 next period.

Exercise 1 (50 Points]: The Solow Growth Model Consider an economy where there are 1,354 agents, each of them having one unit of available time to labor. There is no government. There is a representative firm that has a Cobb-Douglas production technology that creates output (or income) following the form of Y = 2KN- The depreciation rate is 4.9%, the population of agents grows at 1.2%...

20. If a country's depreciation rate increased from 2 percent to 5 percent of physical capital and it was operating at its steady-state before the change, we would expect to see which of the following? I. a decrease in the steady-state per capita capital stock II. a decrease in the steady-state level of real GDP per capita III. a corresponding decrease in real population growth rate IV. an increase in capital stock A) All the above are correct. B) I,...

Let Y=10 * sqrt(K) * sqrt(L) Suppose households save 10% of all output. This savings is added to the capital stock for the next period. On the other hand, depreciation destroys 3% of capital in each period. Draw a graph depicting the steady state equilibrium. (You should have per capita capital on the x axis and per capita investment on the y axis.) Solve for the equilibrium, giving values for y*, k*, i*, and c*.
