Suppose the aggregate price level has decreased, but workers did not notice this initially. Suppose the supply curve of labor initially looked as follows. According to our self-correcting model, once workers notice that the aggregate price level has decreased, Group of answer choices a) the SL curve will increase (shift right). b) none of the other options. c) the SL curve will decrease (shift left). d) nothing will happen to the Supply of Labor (SL) curve. e) the equilibrium wage level, W, will rise.
Consider the model where an individual has wealth k which they can either save or consume. If they save it, they receive a fixed and exogenous return r. The instantaneous utility function is given by: u(c, k) = c + a(k) where c is consumption, k is wealth, and a(k) is a function that defines the utility that an individual gets from holding wealth. The growth in wealth is given as the returns on wealth rk, plus income from working z(t), minus consumption c(t). a. Write out the differential equation for wealth. b. For an infinite time model, set up the optimal control problem with discounting at a rate 8. c. Write the current-valued Hamiltonian of this problem. d. Derive the steady-state level of consumption.
Consider the following one-period model. Assume that the consumption good is produced by a linear technology: Y = zND where Y is the output of the con- sumption good, z is the exogenous total factor productivity, ND is the labour hours. Government has to finance its expenditures, G, using a lump-sum tax, T, on the rep- resentative consumer. There is no other tax in the economy. The firm is owned by the representative consumer who is endowed with h hours of time she can allocate between work, NS and leisure, l. Preferences of the representative consumer are: U (c, l) = α ln c + (1 − α) ln l (1) where 0 < α < 1 is a parameter. (a) Write down the definition of a competitive equilibrium for the above economy 1 (b) Solve for the leisure, l, the consumption, c, employment, N, wage rate, w, lump-sum tax, T , and output, Y in equilibrium. (c) Solve for the optimal allocation of leisure, l, the consumption, c, employment, N, output, Y . Contrast these quantities with those…
Consider again the canonical OLG model with log preferences and a Cobb-Douglas production function, but assume that individuals now work in both periods of their lives. (a) Define a competitive equilibrium and the steady-state equilibrium. (b) Characterize the steady-state equilibrium and the transitional dynamics in this economy. (c) Can this economy generate overaccumulation?
Explain why in every econometric model there must be an error term, explain its function.
How can machine learning be used to analyze data-filled Excel spreadsheets? Let's say you're sitting on a spreadsheet with hundreds of open-ended responses from a recent customer survey. Getting insights from a batch like that will mean hours of manual work. Sorting each answer by topic and overall sentiment will prove to be a cumbersome task. And, in the meantime, urgent matters may come up that require your team's attention. A machine learning model can take care of this analysis in an easy, fast, and consistent way. Having a model analyzing your Excel spreadsheets automatically can save your team hours of valuable time and productivity. Additionally, machine learning models can take care of large spreadsheets in a matter of seconds, scaling your team's productivity upwards. This Al Economics Project will show you how to analyze data-filled Excel spreadsheet for Business Intelligence. Depending on the quality of the answer, you are awarded up to 20-32 points for each assignment. Any…
See Figure 2.2 and examine the model. Unlike other circular flow models, this model is missing another sector/s. what is the missing sector?
Consider a standard Heckscher-Ohlin (HO) Model, where two countries Home and Foreign produce two goods, sugar and milk, using labour (L) and capital (K). Home is relatively labour abundant and Foreign is relatively capital abundant. Assume that sugar is relatively capital intensive and milk is relatively labour intensive. Answer the following questions: (i) Discuss the pattern of trade between the two countries. (li) Under what conditions factor price equalization may be obtained Discuss with help of a diagram showing the segment of equalizatie
Refer to the macroeconomic example, use Cramer's rule to compute Y* AND I*. The equilibrium values of Y and I evaluated at M₀=300, G₀=500, a=100, α=200, b=0.8, t=0.5, β=1, γ=0.4, and δ=1 are Y* =?, I*=?
Suppose the parameters of the Romer model take the following values: A = 100 = 0.05, Z = 1/100, and I = 1,000. What is the growth rate of this country's economy? 10 percent O 40 percent O 0.02 percent O 50 percent O 0.10 percent
Consider the model of a firm that produces final goods using R&D and components as inputs, with cost dataas follows:Assembly: Total cost of production = PAQA = 400Earnings of High-Skilled Labor = WHHA = 100Earnings of Low-Skilled Labor = WLLA = 200Earnings of Capital = RKA = 100R&D: Total cost of production = PRQR = 400Earnings of High-Skilled Labor = WHHR = 175Earnings of Low-Skilled Labor = WLLR = 125Earnings of Capital = RKR = 100A) Which factor is assembly intensive? In which factor(s) is R&D intensive?B) Suppose that due to the opening of trade, the price of assembly falls by ∆PA/PA = −20%, the price of R&D remains unchanged, ∆PR/PR = 0%, and capital’s share earnings remains constant.C) What has happened to the relative wage of high-skilled/low-skilled labor? Does this match the predictions of the offshoring model?
