Consider an Economy in steady state, with a Cobb Douglas Production function. They have a savings rate of 45% and a capital share of 2/7. Technological progress is 1%, population growth is 3%, and Depreciation is 5%. 1. Derive the Production function per effective worker and solve for steady state capital, output, and consumption per effective worker. 2. What is MPK in the steady state? Is this country saving too much or too little? How do you know? 3. What should you lower or raise the saving rate to, in order to reach the golden rule steady state
Other things equal, when the government runs a large budget deficit, it _____ national saving and thereby _____ capital formation and productivity growth. a) increase;increase b)decreases;decreases c)increase;decreases d;decreases;increases
Consider a country with production function unction ? = 5? 1/2, where y is the output per worker and kis capital per worker. Suppose the investment in capital occurs at a rate of 35% of income perworker every period, the depreciation rate is 1.5% and the population growth rate is 2%. Use excel toplot the production function, investment line and capital depletion line with k on the x-axis (usethe attached spreadsheet to draw your graphs).a. What is the steady state level of y and k.b. Suppose TFP increases by 20%. What happens to the steady state y and k?c. Suppose the investment rate increases to 40%. What happens to the steady state y and k?
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?
