  • Q6:1. Solow model. Consider the standard Solow growth model with technological progress (g) and pop- ulation growth (n), where g and n are positive and exogenous. Assume that the economy is initially on the balance growth path. Suddenly there is a one-time unex- pected and permanent downward jump in the number of workers due to a government repatriation program of illegal immigrants. Explain both the immediate and transitional effect of this jump on capital per ef- fective worker and output per effective worker. Draw the time path of output per capita and compare it to the case without the repatriation program.See Answer
  • Q7:2. Solow model with Human capital. Consider the following Solow growth model with human capital a la Mankiw, Romer and Weil (1992). "A Contribution to the Empirics of Economic Growth," Quar- terly Journal of Economics 107, 407-437. They treated physical and human capital symmetrically Production function: Y(t) = (A(t)L(t))¹-a-³H(t)³K(t)ª, a, 3 € (0, 1), a + ß < 1. Capital accumulation: K(t) = 8kY(t) — 5K(t), 6, 8k € (0,1). Technical progress: A(t) = est A(0). Population growth: L(t) = entL(0). Human capital accumulation: Ĥ(t) = 8HY(t) - 5H(t), 6, 8H € (0,1). Society invests SH and SK percent of its total income Y in human capital and physical capital, respectively. a. What is the long run (Balanced Growth Path) growth rate of output per capita. Does it depend on sh? 1 b. Write down the stationary system and find out the steady-state level of output, physical and human capital per unit of efficiency labor. Show the dynamics of this system. c. This model augmented with human capital can be tested empirically with cross- country data if we assume that all countries are in the steady-state. Derive a log-linear regression equation for output per worker in the long run. d. Discuss the empirical findings of Mankiw, Romer and Weil (1992). Also, what are the main concerns with their empirical strategy?See Answer
  • Q8:3. Consumption Problem. Suppose period utility is of the constant relative risk aversion type: u(c) --0-1,0>0. Consumer's objective is to maximise expected lifetime utility: = U = E[Σ_Bu(c)], βε(0,1), Eolt t-0 with 3 = p > 0. Assume the real interest rate, r, is constant but not necessary equal to the time preference, p. Eo is the expectation conditional on information at time 0. The budget constraint is: c+at+1 = yr + (1+r)at, where do is given, yt is a stochastic random variable and at time t the consumer knows the realisation of y, but does not know its future values. a. What is the Euler equation relating the marginal utility of ce to expectations concerning the marginal utility of C++1? Explain. b. Suppose that the (natural) logarithm of income is normally distributed with zero mean, and that as a consequence the logarithm of ce+1 is also normally distributed, with mean E₂(lnc+1). Let o² denote the variance of the log of con- sumption conditional on information available at time t. Rewrite the expression in part (a) in terms of In(c₂), E₂(ln(+1), ² and the parameters r, p, and 0. (Hint: If a variable z is distributed normally with mean and variance V, then E(e²) = c+V). c. Show that if rand o are constant over time, the result in part (b) implies that the log of consumption follows a random walk with drift: In(+1) = a+ln(c₂)+u+1, where u is a white noise. d. How do changes in each of r and o² affect expected consumption growth, E₂(ln(+1)-In())? Interpret the effect of o² on expected consumption growth in light of the discussion on precautionary savings in Romer. 2See Answer
  • Q9:(B) This question has to do with uncertainty regarding the rate of return to investment. The representative individual maximizes: EU = chy 1-y +BEL- -], y<1 where y> 0 is the coefficient of relative risk aversion. There is only one physical asset in the economy, namely capital. The individual has an initial wealth, W, consumes W-K in period 1, and saves (invest) the rest. The return from the investment is consumed in the second period. Thus C₂ = KZ, where Z is the stochastic return on capital. The log of Z is assumed to be normally distributed with mean and variance o² (obviously and o² refer to a different random variable here as compared to Question A(b)(ii) above). Thus the expectation of Z is e(+¹/2) (you are not required to know how to derive this). Note that if Z is lognormal, so are powers of Z. Hence the expectation of Z" is e(+¹²/2) (a) Calculate the optimal savings decision. (Note that Hall's Euler equation does not apply here. Why not?) How does an increase in ² affect saving? (b) Does your answer to part (a) say anything about the effects of an increase in uncertainty on savings? (See also question (c) below - in fact, you may wish to attempt (c) first.) (c) Holding constant the expectation of Z, how does saving respond to a change in o²? (d) How is your answer to (c) affected if y>1, and what is the economic rationale for this?See Answer
  • Q10:1. In the first four weeks of this course, you have learned about economic concepts such as supply and demand, scarcity, tradeoff decisions, international trade, opportunity cost, and compound growth. Think about the economic concepts you encountered in the readings for the first three weeks, or those you know about from previously learning or research. These could include concepts such as supply and demand, scarcity, tradeoff decisions, inflation, and opportunity costs. Choose at least one economic concept and describe how it is relevant to the scenario and your two budgets. Write your response to question 1 here.]See Answer
  • Q11:2. How did expenditures change between budgets? Which expenditures changed the most? Which expenditures changed the least? Which stayed the same? Summarize the change in expenditures between budgets. [Write your response to question 2 here.]See Answer
  • Q12:3. What were the economic trends that created the need for your family to change their expenditures? What can you infer about the connection between prices and expenditures, based on the economic concepts you have learned? Describe the economic trends that created the need for a change in expenditures.See Answer
  • Q13:4. Think of a way to explain the rationale for your budget decisions to your family. Some questions you could think about to help create your explanation are: • Why did you decide to buy less food? • Why did your housing costs increase? • Why did you decide to cut the most from entertainment and apparel? • Why couldn't you change the amount you spent on transportation (this likely includes your car payment)? What other areas had to remain the same? Why did you decide to reduce the amount that you paid towards existing debt or put into savings, and what will the long- term effects of that be? [Write your response to question 4 here.]See Answer
  • Q14:5. In our personal lives, we sometimes need to react to changes in our economic environment. Thinking about your own budget, describe how a change in an economic variable (such as a change in income, employment, interest rates, or prices) from within the last year either has impacted or could impact your personal life and finances. If the trend continues over the next year or two, what predictions could you make about further impacts to your personal life and finances? [Write your response to question 5 here.]See Answer
