I need help with parts (f) and (g) of question 2
Suppose the per-worker production function is: y = A(1-gA) Where ga is the fraction of all workers that produce technologies. Further, suppose the growth of technology is given by the following equation growth of A = (g//m)(L) Suppose L = 1 and m = 7, and that initially ga = 0.7. If ga fell to 0.8 the level of output per %3D worker would: fall Impossible to say rise stay the same
Consider the following growth model for technology: 8=04 (5,L) Explain for each of the cases technical level (4) and the technical growth rate develop over time if we assumes that the supply of laborforce to research (L, =s,L) and<1 how output from the research sector the is constant/fixed.
6. The constant returns to scale assumption in the endogenous growth model implies that: A) countries will definitely reach a steady-state equilibrium. B) if there are constant returns to one input alone, there will be increasing returns to scale to all factors of production taken together. C) the production function will have a concave shape. D) the production function will have a convex shape. E) the capital-labour ratio will be constant at the steady-state. 7. In the AD-AS model, in the long-run, a decrease in the real money supply: A) will result in a movement along a horizontal AS curve. B) may be the result of equilibrium prices decreasing following a contractionary fiscal policy. C) causes the actual unemployment rate to fall below the natural rate of unemployment. D) is caused by a decrease in the interest rate. E) decreases consumers’ disposable income. 8. Decreasing government expenditure is effective at: A) increasing the level of output in the short-run,…
Please, I urgently need this exercise. Area of expertise is macroeconomics: Solow growth model.
Problem 2 In class, we argued that if people could accumulate human as well as physical capital, the production function would look like the "AK" production function. (a) If the production function is AK and the savings rate is constant at rate "s", and the rates of depreciation and population growth are 8 and n respectively, what would the growth rate of the economy be? (b) What would be the macroeconomic consequences of increasing the savings rate in this economy? Explain using the model and intuitively. (c) What would be the consequences of an increase in fertility in this economy? Are these consequences good or bad? Is this answer unambiguous? (d) How are human and physical capital different from one another in the way they evolve from period to period? (e) Does human capital have an upper limit? If it does, what is the resulting production function when this is reached and the growth rate of the economy? If it doesn't have a limit, what is the resulting growth rate of output as it…
Which of the following is true regarding the equilibrium relationship between total factor productivity (z) and the real wage per efficiency unit of labor (w) in the Chapter 8 endogenous growth model? O Z> W OZ
Solve it correctly please. I will rate accordingly.
QUESTION 2 Suppose that an economy's production function is y-A/0.5g0.3y0.7, where Y is output, A is total factor productivity, Lis land, K is capital and N is labor. However, we make a mistake and assume that it is given by y-AK03N0.7. In other words, we do not take into account that land L matters. If K and N do not change, but L grows by 19.9%, what would we estimate the growth rate of A to be (approximately, in percent terms)? (Submit your answer with up to two decimals, i.e., 10.22 for 10.22% and 11.44 for 11.442%.)
Consider now the two-period model in general equilibrium, so that prices, investment and labour supply are endogenous, i.e. the production economy. Analyse and carefully explain graphically and in words the general equilibrium effects of a decrease in TFP(total factor production) for a benchmark economy with no frictions.
asap pls thank you
