Suppose demand for inkjet printers is estimated to be QX = 1000 – 5PX + 10PY – 2PZ + 0.1M. If own price (PX) = 80, related prices, PY = 50, PZ = 150, and income, M = 20,000.Calculate own price elasticity of demand and interpret your result


Consider a Solow growth model with the following production function:

 (1) If A = 2, L = 20,000, and K = 400, what is output?

 

 (2) Does this production function have constant returns to scale? Explain.

 

 (3) Suppose the labor force grows by 5% so that it is now 21,000. By how  

    much does output increase?

 

 (4) Starting again with the conditions in part (1), what if capital increases by

    5%, so that it is now 420. By how much does output increase?

 



1) Consider a country with an ICOR of 8.0 in which GDP rises by 4% per annum to prevent a decline in per-capita income. This requires a saving rate of

 

2) For an economy’s output function, where y=(Y/L) and k = (K/L), what statement best describes it?

 

3) In a steady-state economy with no population growth, capital per worker is 80, the saving rate is 25 percent, and the depreciation rate is 12.5 percent. The level of output per worker is ________

 

4) What is true regarding the situation when k = k*?  


5) What is the condition required for k = k* to become a golden rule steady state equilibrium level of k?


 


 

 



1) If the economy’s output function is given as , where y=(Y/L) and k = (K/L), the average productivity of capital diminishes as k increases.

2) Other things the same, in the Solow model in the steady state, a higher rate     of population growth leads to an increase in the level of output per worker.

 

3) While capital dilution lowers the value of k, capital widening raises the value of k in the Solow model.  

 

4) In the Solow model with technological progress, the growth rate of GDP is the same as the population growth rate and the savings rate.

 

5) If the production function is given as Y = L∙K, then it follows constant returns to scale.

 

6) When the output stays the same after the use of each input has been doubled, then the economy’s production function follows a constant returns to scale.

12. Consider two cultures X and Z. In culture X, parents live for their children and grandchildren where their current income is divided among current consumption, saving for retirement, and investment in the education of their children. In culture Z, children are born as assets for their parents so that the current generation expects to be taken care of by the future generation. Output produced by the younger generation is divided into proceed and bequest for parents, and investment for future self-sufciency.

(a) What is the direction of flow of resource of investment in the two cultures?

(b) What is the implication of the two cultures for growth?
