Economists from Funlandia have collected the following information about the economy (all measured in billions of bucks): Y = 12, C= 9, T = 2, and G = 2.5. The economists also estimate the investment function is I = 2 – 0.5r where r is the country’s real interest rate expressed as a percentage. Calculate private saving, public saving, national saving, investment, and the real interest rate.

= 5√K and has a capital Country A produces GDP according to the following equation: GDP stock of 13,399. If the country devotes 13% of its GDP to producing or repairing investment goods, how much is this country currently investing? Rounds your answer to two decimal places.

Assume that a country experiences a permanent increase in its saving rate. Which of the following will occur as a result of this increase in the saving rate?

Suppose that the economy is summarized by the following: Technology (Production Function): Yt = 10 (Kt)0.3 (Lte)0.7 Consumption function: Ct = 0.8Yt Depreciation rate: 8% (i.e. δ= 0.08) Population growth: 2% (i.e. n = 0.02) Technological growth: 4% (i.e. g = 0.04)   QUESTIONS:  Find the steady state (long run) equilibrium values of kte, yet, and cet. Show graphically what would be the effect of a increase of the saving rate to s=0.4? Show graphically what would be the effect of an increase in population growth to 0.04? Assuming that in 2013 the US economy is in the steady state and L2013 = Le2013 = 8, what is the value of ke2014, ye2014, ce2014 , k2014, y2014, and c2014 ? Use your answer to e) to calculate the growth rate of ket, yet, cet , kt, yt, and ct Based on your answers to the previous questions and on your knowledge of how the Solow growth model works, explain what policies should a less-developed country pursue to raise its level of income in the long-run?…
