1. Suppose we introduce government purchases into the Solow Growth model. The production technology is given by Y = AK N- where A is some measure of total factor productivity, K, is the level of capital and N is the size of the labor force. Output is split between consumption, C, investment, I, and Government purchases, G. according to Y=C +I+G. Assume that government...
