can be calibrated as follows:
Productivity factor, AG= 5
Labour elasticity, " = 1/3
Degree to which the agent prefers leisure to work, ↵ = 0.5
Time endowment, T = 1
Find: the new equilibrium values for and indicate what the value represent.
(a) Labour, l. [10 Marks]
(b) Consumption, c. [10 Marks].
(c) Utility, u. [10 Marks]
(d) Graph the equilibrium in a (c : l) space [10 Marks]
((f) Estimate the growth in output in the economy as result of the improvement
in productivity.
