Consider the canonical OLG model with log preferences and a Cobb-Douglas production function (as in Exercise 9.8).
(a) Define a competitive equilibrium.
(b) Characterize the competitive equilibrium, and derive explicit conditions under which the steady-state equilibrium is dynamically inefficient.
(c) Using plausible numbers discuss whether dynamic inefficiency can arise in "realistic" economies.
(d) Show that when there is dynamic inefficiency, it is possible to construct an unfunded social security system that creates a Pareto improvement relative to the competitive allocation.
Exercise 9.8
Consider the canonical model with log preferences, log(c1(t)) + β log(c2(t)), and the general neoclassical technology F(K, L) satisfying Assumptions 1 and 2 (see Chapter 2). Show that multiple steady-state equilibria are possible in this economy.
Define inflation. Assume that you live in a simple economy in which only three goods are produced and traded: fish, fruit, and meat. Suppose that on January 1, 2007, fish sold for $2.50 per pound, meat was $3.00 per pound, and fruit was $1.50 per ..
Suppose that, on and near the U.C. Sunnydale campus, the weekly supply curve for lattes is given by the equation Q = max(1000 P - 2000, 0) : nobody makes any lattes unless the price is above $2/latte, and for each $1 the price is above $2 an extra..
Devise two research questions. What do you want to find out? What information do you need in order to make better sense of the play?
A firm has the opportunity to invest in a project having an initial outlay of $20,000. Net cash inflows (before depreciation and taxes) are expected to be $5,000 per year for five years. The firm has a marginal income-tax rate of 40%.
Coldwell Banker is employing 10 acres of land and 50 tons of cement to produce 1,000 parking spaces. Land costs $4,000 per acre and cement costs $12 per ton. For the input quantities employed, MP L = 50 and MP C = 4.
For a particular good that is monopolized, the monopolist faces the following demand and cost conditions: P= 12 - 2 qd MR= 12-4qd MC= 2 q a) What price will the firm charge its customers b) Will the firm earn positive economic profits
Is Honda's strategy of producing a different engine standard than Toyota and not collaborating or licensing to other automakers a good one? What would you recommend?
Mirk Labs is a British pharmaceutical company that currently enjoys a patent monopoly in Europe, Canada, and the United States on Zatab (pronounced zay-tab), an allergy medication. The global demand for Zatab is: Qd=15.0-0.2P
Use this modified diagram to examine the effects of temporary and permanent changes in monetary and fiscal policy.
A firm in a purely competitive industry is currently producing 1000 units per day at a total cost of $450. If the firm produced 800 units per day, its total cost would be $300, and if it produced 500 units per day, its total cost would be $275.
Where Qd denotes quantity demanded, P denotes price, Y denotes personal income (in thousands of dollars), and A denotes advertising expenditures in hundreds of dollars. ABC's marginal cost function is given as MC = 21 + 4Q Assume Y equals 3
the nation of ectenia has 20 competitive apple orchards which sell apples at the world price of 2. the following
