please answer the following, I have attached an image of the question for better format. Thanks! 3. Suppose that the production function of a country is given by Y=KaL1-a, where 0<a<1, Y is output, L is labour, and K is capital, Derive the equation for steady state capital per worker, output per worker, and consumption per worker in terms of the saving rate (s) and depreciation rate (d).
3). Let's consider the Solow Model without technology advancement. Y(t)=2K(t)^(1/2)*L(t)^(1/2) The population growth rate=0.02 Capital accumulation is s*Y(t)-d*K s=0.2, d=0.03 d is the capital depreciation rate. In the steady state, please calculate the following measurements. (a)Capital per capita A. 16 В. 24 С. 36 D. 48 Е. 64 F. None of the above (b)Marginal product of capital (Hint: The first derivative of Y with respect to K) А. 1 В. 1/2 С. 1/4 D. 1/8 E. 1/16 F. None of the above
Consider an economy described by the production function Y=F(K, L)=?^0.4?^0.6 A) What is the per-worker production function?B) Assuming no population growth or technological progress, find the steady-state capital stock per worker, output per worker, and consumption per worker as a function of the saving rate and the depreciation rate.

Moreover, assume that the depreciation rate is d = 0.02, the rate of population growth is n = 0.02, and the saving rate is s = = 0.2. a. Compute the value of the capital stock per worker in steady state. b. Draw a graph that represents the steady-state equilibrium of the model. c. Suppose that the capital-labor ration in year t is 90. What will the level of the capital- labor ratio be in year t+1? Will it increase or decrease in future periods? Explain. d. Compute the rate of change of the capital labor ratio between time t and t + 1. How does it compare to the rate of growth of the capital-labor ratio in steady state?
Country A and Country B both have the production function Y = F(K,L) = K¹/32/3 neither country experiences population growth or technological progress and that 20 percent of capital depreciates each year. Assume further that country A saves 10 percent of output each year and country B saves 30 percent of output each year. Now suppose that both countries start in year 1 with a capital stock per worker of 1. In what year will consumption in country B be higher than consumption in Country A? An excel spreadsheet may help simplify your calculation. You will need to round your calculations to 3 decimal places. O O O 5 6 4 Assume that 07

Please assist to solve the below question. Suppose an economy is on a balanced growth path in a simple Romer model, as described in the text, where aggregate output is: Y, = A,Lyt, law of motion of ideas (idea production function) is: AA++1 = ZA“, Lat ; labour resource constraint is: Ly +Lat = L, and the allocation of labour is: La = IL, %3D where z is a productivity parameter of the researchers, Ao is the existing stock of ideas at time, t = 0, L is the total population and assumed to be constant, and i is the constant fraction of population who works in the research sector. Suppose in year 2030, research productivity z rises immediately and permanently to the new level z'. а. How would the growth rate of ideas behave if a <1? b. Assuming a = 1, solve for the new growth rate of knowledge and growth rate of output per capita. С. Assuming a = 1, sketch the graph of Iny against time t. d. Why might research productivity increase in an economy?
