Introduction to Modern Economic Growth two countries in the year 2000? Discuss this result and explain why you (or not) find the implications plausible Exercise 11.8 Prove that the necessary conditions for consumer optimization in Section 11.2 lead to the conditions enumerated in (11.25) Exercise 11.9 Prove Proposition 11.3 Exercise 11.10 Prove that the competitive equilibrium of the economy in Section 11.2, characterized in Proposition 11.3, is Pareto optimal and coincides with the solution to the optimal growth problem Exercise 11.11 Show that the rate of population growth has no effect on the equilibrium growth rate of the economies studied in Sections 11.1 and 11.2 Explain why this is Do you find this to be a plausible prediction? Exercise 11.12 * Show that in the model of Section 11.3, if the Cobb-Douglas assumption is relaxed, there will not exist a balanced growth path with a constant share of capital income in GDP Exercise 11.13 Consider the effect of an increase in α on the competitive equilibrium of the model in Section 11.3 Why does it increase the rate of capital accumulation in the economy? Exercise 11.14 Consider a variant of the model studied in Section 11.3, where the technology in the consumption-good sector is still given by (11.27), while the technology in the investment-good sector is modified to I (t) = A (KI (t))β (LI (t))1−β , where β ∈ (α, 1) The labor market clearing condition requires LC (t) + LI (t) ≤ L (t) The rest of the environment is unchanged (1) Define a competitive equilibrium (2) Characterize the steady-state equilibrium and show that it does not involve sustained growth (3) Explain why the long-run growth implications of this model differ from those of Section 11.3 (4) Analyze the steady-state income differences between two economies taxing capital at the rates τ and τ What are the roles of the parameters α and β 531
