Q.3     Population growth in a country has increased. The higher population growth will lead to higher living standards. Comment on this statement with the help of a graph derived from the neoclassical growth model.                         Assuming that the current crisis causes a decrease in the savings rate permanently. In a neoclassical growth model, does this affects the growth rate of real output? Why or why not?

Consider two economies in which the population is stable; they are identical in every respect except that households in economy A save more of their income than households in economy B. How will these economies differ in terms of the level of output, labour productivity, and the growth rates of output and productivity? Explain. Now consider countries C and D, both identical except that firms in country C allocate more resources to research and development (which tends to lead to...

Population growth: Suppose the world population today is 7 billion, and suppose this population grows at a constant rate of 3% per year from now on. (This rate is almost certainly much faster than the future population growth rate; the high rate used here is useful for pedagogy. If you like, you can use a spreadsheet program to help you with this question.) What would the population equal 100 years from now? Compute the level of the population for t...

Consider the Solow growth model with population growth and growth in the efficiency of labor. Suppose that 2 countries A and B have the same production function given by Yt = Ktα(LtEt)1−α, the same rate of growth of E (g), the same depreciation rate of physical capital (δ) and the same saving rate s. The initial level of E, E0, is lower in country A than in country B. (a) Compare the steady-state levels of output per effective worker of...

Question 2 Suppose an entrepreneur invests in two projects that are identical in all respects except in terms of their financing. Each of the projects requires an initial investment of £10 million today (at date 0) and is expected to generate a single cash flow at the end of the year (at date 1). The cash flow at date 1 is either £20 million or £12 million with equal probability depending on the state of the economy. The entrepreneur decides...
