Consider three counties, Britania, Zstan and Kryptan. These countries are similar in many aspects including technology, the level of education of the workforce and the supply of natural resources. However, Zstan has a higher savings rate than Britania while Kryptan has a lower savings rate. Draw a per-worker aggregate production function representing these countries, and plot points to show the possible combinations of physical capital per worker and real GDP per worker in each of these nations, labeling Brittania (B), Zstan (Z), and Kryptan (K). Explain your diagram.
