Economics 4. The Solow model says that population growth will not benefit a country in the long run but Michael Kremer disagrees. Explain both positions. Use a graph to explain Solow's argument. 5. The amount of education the typical person receives varies substantially among countries. Suppose you were to compare a country with a highly educated labor force and a country with a less educated labor force. Assume that education affects only the level of the efficiency of labor. Also assume that the countries are otherwise the same: They have the same saving rate, the same depreciation rate, the same population growth rate, and the same rate of technological progress. Both countries are described by the Solow model and are in their steady states. How would the following variables differ between the countries? A. The rate of growth of total income B. The level of income per worker C. The real rental price of capital D. The real wage

Problem 4 a) Prof Andrew described steady states as "horrible places to be." Was this claim absolute or relative? Do countries having steady states that are lower in the capital have worse living qualities? b) Imagine a world where there are "n" countries with different levels of capital, k. They all share the same saving level, birth rate, and the same GDP per capita function. The only thing that differs is their depreciation rate. In this world, how does the distribution of income in the short term and long term look like? Think about the shape it would take.
