Q.1) Consider the Solow Model with the production function Y = K *L* which states that output depends on the capital stock and labor force. Assume that λ = 1/2, 30% of the output is saved, 10% of capital stock depreciates every year and population growth rate is nil. Explicitly solve for the steady state value of per capita capital stock and output per capita. b) Describe and explain with a help of a diagram, how if at all each of the following changes affects the steady state equilibrium in the Solow model. (Numerical explanation is not required) (i) The rate of depreciation falls. (ii) Workers exert more effort, so that output per unit of labor for a given value of capital per unit of labor is higher than before.
