Suppose, a country X has a GDP level of 4, 50,000 and a growth rate of 10% in 2007(calculated at the end of the fiscal year 2007). The experts predict that the growth ofthe economy of Country X will gradually slowdown in the coming years. Moreprecisely, they foresee the following growth rates for the future:2007 – 2010 = 10%2010 – 2013 = 9%2013 – 2016 = 7.5%2016 – 2019 = 5%2019 – on = 1% Hint: The list above should be read as saying that, for instance, the growth rate fromthe end of the fiscal year 2007 until the end of 2010 will be 10 %, then from the end of2010 until the end of 2013 it will be 9% and so on. Assuming that the predictions of the experts listed above are accurate, when in thefuture will Country X’s GDP double compared to the GDP level of 2007? Consider now the more optimistic scenario in which the economy does not slow downand the current growth rate of 10% remains constant in the coming years. How longwill it take for the GDP level to double in this scenario? Express…

Productivity and growth policies Consider a hypothetical small island nation in which the only industry is cloud computing. The following table displays information about the economy over a two year period. Complete the table by calculating physical capital per worker as well as labor productivity.

The CDB said that its projection of growth comes after an extremely difficult year in which the economies of its 19 borrowing member countries (BMCs) contracted by 12.8 percent on average due to the onset of novel coronavirus. “In 2020, the majority of BMCs registered double-digit declines in GDP. Countries with significant tourism industries, such as The Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Cayman Islands, Dominica, and Grenada, were hard-hit by a more than 70 percent drop in overnight visitors in 2020, which spilled over to affect other economic sectors. An increase in agricultural production in Jamaica could not prevent the economy from shrinking by 10.4 percent. Agriculture in Belize was affected by a severe drought from the previous year and then a reduction in tourism-related demand. The economy contracted by 13.3 percent. Guyana was the only economy to record economic growth (26 percent), solely due to the start-up of its first oil production. However, growth was lower than expected due…
