![Romer Model Exercise:
Consider the Romer model, Y = A,Nyt, AAt+1
Ão = 10,1 = 0.01, z = 0.035, Ñ = 100.
ZAĄNat, and parameter values are:
(a) What is the growth rate of GDP per capita? What is the per capita GDP at period
60, Yt=60?
(b) Suppose at period 60, the number of researchers decrease by 50% permanently. Draw
a graph to show the impact. What is the value of per capita GDP, y4=60, now?
(c) Suppose now the production function is still Y; = A¿Nyt, but the accumulation of
ideas becomes AAt+1 = ZA?$ Nat. What is the growth rate of ideas?
(d) Following from (c), what is the growth rate of output per capita at period 1?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F2dbfb763-801b-4d27-832f-2a7f27cbb530%2F75f84e77-55c9-4ec5-93aa-6b64c4d11531%2Fmw8y2k_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
