Contributions to GDP Growth∆Y/Y = ∆A/ A + α·(∆ K/K) + β·(∆ L/L)
OR:
The growth rate of real GDP, ∆Y/Y, equals the growth rate of technology, ∆ A/A, plus the contributions from the growth of capital, α·(∆K/K), and Labour, β ·(∆L/L).

Solow Growth Model
Each household divides up its real income in a fixed proportion s to saving and 1 − s to consumption ( C ).
Capital depreciate at the same constant rate δ
δ K is the amount of capital that depreciates each year

Solow Growth ModelLabour force, L = ( Labour force/ population) · population
Labour-force participation rate
Assume Labour force participation rate is constant.
Labour force growth rate is the population growth rate: n.

Solow Growth ModelAssume ∆A/A = 0
∆Y/Y= α·(∆K/K) + (1−α)·(∆L/L)
The growth rate of real GDP is a weighted average of the growth rates of capital and Labour.

Solow Growth ModelY = C + IReal GDP = consumption + gross investment
Y− δ K = C + ( I − δ K)Real NDP = consumption + net investment

Solow Growth Model
• Real saving = s · (Y − δK)
• Real saving = (saving rate) · (real income)
![Page 11: Ec4004 2008 Lecture15 Ss](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052311/558be5e9d8b42a653a8b45dd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Macroeconomics - Barro Chapter 3 11
Solow Growth Model
• Y− δ K = C + s· ( Y− δ K)
• Real income = consumption + real saving
![Page 12: Ec4004 2008 Lecture15 Ss](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052311/558be5e9d8b42a653a8b45dd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Solow Growth Model
C+ s· ( Y− δ K) = C+ I − δ K
or
s· ( Y− δ K) = I − δ KReal saving = net investment

Solow Growth Model ∆k/k = s·(y/k) − sδ − n
∆y/y = α·(∆k/k)
∆y/y = α·[ s·( y/k) − sδ − n]

Solow Growth Modelsteady state.When k = k∗, ∆k/k equals zero.∆k/k = 0, k stays fixed at the value k∗.
y* = f(k*)

Solow Growth Model
In the steady state, ∆ k/k equals zero.s· ( y*/ k*) − sδ − n= 0
s·( y* − δ k*) = nk*
Steady-state saving per worker = steady-state capital provided for each new worker

"You know, we're not used to this, not having enough food," said Orresta, with a hint of embarrassment in her voice.She paused, and began to weep."You can't know what it's like to see your children hungry and feel helpless to stop it," she said.
––Beatriz Orresta

"The food is there, in the grocery store, but you just can't afford to buy it anymore. My husband keeps working, but he keeps bringing home less and less. We never had much, but we always had food, no matter how bad things got. But these are not normal times."
––Beatriz Orresta
