Long-run growth occurs when an economy: (a) makes use of existing but underutilized productive capacity. (b) expands its productive capacity by acquiring new resources or making better use of existing  resources. (c) moves from one point to another on its production possibility frontier. (d) moves from a point inside its production possibility frontier to a point on the frontier

Economic growth is the process of Group of answer choices All of the above producing more agricultural products and more industrial products. increasing real output. expanding the production possibilities frontier.

(a) Two countries, Country A and Country B, are described by the Solow growth model. Both countries are identical, except that the rate of labor-augmenting technological progress is higher in A than in B. i. In which country is the steady-state growth rate of output per effective worker higher? ii. Does the Solow growth model predict that the two economies will converge to the same steady state? p (b) Based on the Solow growth model with population growth and labor-augmenting technological progress, explain how each of the following policies would affect the steady-state level and steady-state growth rate of total output per person: i. an increase in the government's budget deficit poits) inis) ii. grants to support research and development (c) Consider a Solow model where the production function no longer exhibits diminishing returns to capital accumulation. Assume the production function is now Y = AK. What happens to the growth rate of per capita GDP over time? (6pints)

7. Suppose that the economy's production function is Y = √K√LA where K is capital, L is labor, and A is the state of technology. Suppose that the saving rate (s) is equal to 6%, the rate of depreciation of capital (8) is equal to 5%, the number of workers grow at 5% per year and the rate of technological progress is 4%. (a) Find the steady state values of: iv. growth rate of output per worker growth rate of output v. (b) Suppose that the saving rate increases. What is its short-run and the long-run effect on the growth rate of per-capita output?
