Use the classical general equilibrium model WITH INVESTMENT and GRAPHICAL ANALYSIS to discuss the effects on the LEVELS of consumption, investment, GDP, the interest and the price level at time t of (a) A permanent DECREASE in the level of productivity (that is, a decrease in At and At+1) (b) A temporary DECREASE in the level of productivity (that is, a decrease in A; but not in Ag+1) (c) An ANTICIPATED DECREASE in the level of productivity (that is, a decrease in At+1 but not in A:)

5. Consider the basic neoclassical model. Graphically analyze the effects of: (a) An increase in Gt+1 b) An increase in A t+1 c) A permanent increase in productivity In each case, describe clearly how each endogenous variable changes.
True or False: It is possible, in a basic hours towards leisure and income towards consumption model, that the Earned Income Tax Credit can encourage more hours towards leisure, less hours towards work and more money towards consumption.
A certain country's GDP (total monetary value of all finished goods and services produced in that country) can be approximated by g(t) = 2,000-420e 0.07t billion dollars per year (0 ≤t≤ 5), where t is time in years since January 2010. Find an expression for the total GDP G(t) of sold goods in this country from January 2010 to time t. HINT: [Use the shortcuts.] G(t) = Estimate, to the nearest billion dollars, the country's total GDP from January 2010 through June 2014. (The actual value was 7,321 billion dollars.) Xbillion dollars
Consider an economy in which the consumption, investment and production functions are as follows.C = 90 + 0:7(Y - T)I = 250 - 20r F(K;L) = AK1=2L1=2The capital and labor supply are equal to 100 each, A=10, G = 200 and T = 200. Compute theequilibrium values of output, overall labor income, consumption, public savings, national savings,investment, and the interest rate.Suppose now government spending decreases to G=100 (everything else stays the same). Whathappens to output, consumption, savings, investment and the interest rate? Compute the newvalues for these variables.
Consider the intertemporal model of consumption studied in class, with two possible periods. Consider initially that an individual is a borrower. If the interest rate increases: (a)The individual will never become a saver. (b)The individual will always remain a borrower. (c)The individual will be worse off, provided she remains a borrower. (d)The individual can be better off, but only if she becomes a saver. Both c and d.
Consider the household model that you have seen in class but now assume that the goal of the household is to consume twice as much in period 2 as in period 1. She earns $100 in the first period and $150 in the second period. The interest rate is 5%. What is her optimal saving in the first period? Note: Type in your answer approximated to two decimal points, i.e., your answer must be of the form "999.99". I will not be able to fix correct answers that were entered incorrectly, such as "999.999" or "999,99" or "999". In case the last digit in the correct answer is zero, e.g., "999.90" or "999.00", Blackboard will automatically delete it and you should not do anything about it.

Assume that the production function for a country is given by Y=√K and annual investment is given by the function I=γ×YI where γ=0.280, and that the yearly depreciation rate is 4.67%. Suppose that this year, the output in the country is 1, and a neighbor country's output is 50% higher. Calculate the time it would take for the country's output to catch up with its neighbor's output. Assume the neighbor country's economy is neither growing nor shrinking.
Consider the production function modelled by the following equation: Y₁ = AK₁-α(BH₂)ªL₹ where Kt is capital, Ht is human capital, Lt is the number of workers, B is a scalar larger than 0, A is the (constant) level of technology, 0 < a <1 and 0 <ɛ<1. a) Does this production function satisfy all the neoclassical properties? Discuss the meaning of each property intuitively and mathematically. t Imagine that parents invest in the human capital of their children up to the point where the marginal product of physical capital, Kt, is equal to the marginal product of human capital, Ht. b) What is the relation between Kt and Ht? Use this relation to write down total output as a function of Kt only. Q3(b) in order to make output a function of K alone, after establishing that H and K are proportional, should we also establish H=h*L to remove L from the equation? Or are we treating L and H as independent variables like we did for the previous PSET and question 3(a) above.
The formula for economic impact is I(r)=(A)/1-r The formula for impact change is ∆I= I'(r)*∆r The formula for percentage change is g(r)=(r)/1-r

In the United States economy, there is a great deal of focus on technological advancements. These advances are said to increase worker productivity (like Zoom) or increase the productivity of capital (such as technology that makes the supply chain more efficient).What effect does advancement in technology have on the equilibrium real rental price and capital, assuming that the supply of capital is fixed? Explain, using the terms in the production function, how you know this to be true.
