TRUE/FALSE
1. An
increase in the depreciation rate affects the steady-state capital per worker
the same way as an increase in the population growth rate.
2. If
the saving rate increases, then the optimum level of capital per worker falls.
3. An
increase in technology causes the optimum level of capital per worker to rise
in the long run or steady state.
4. An
increase in technology causes the real GDP per worker to increase during the
transition to the steady-state.
5. An
increase in technology cause the growth in real output per worker to be higher
in the long run or steady-state.
6. An
increase in the saving rate causes the growth in real output per worker to be
lower in the long run or steady-state.
7. The
Solow model of growth says that poorer economies should over time converge
towards richer ones in terms of real output put worker.
8. In
the long run or steady state of the Solow model, the growth rate of capital per
worker is higher with a higher saving rate.
9. An
increase in the population growth rate in the Solow model causes the growth in
output per worker to be higher in the long run or steady-state.
10. An
increase in the population growth rate in the Solow model causes output per
worker to be lower in the long run or steady-state.
