4. Explain what the Laffer curve is and why it is an Inverted-U shape. [10 pts]

(e) Use the figure in (d) to show that Ricardian equivalence theorem may not hold under the asymmetric information. Explain clearly how a tax cut in the current period will affect the lifetime income for a borrower given that the government's spending is unchanged. [10 pts]

2.Consider a two-period real model with investment. The consumer chooses consumption (C and C') and labor supply (Ns and Ns) in the current and future periods, and determines saving (s) in the current period. The firm chooses labor demand (Nd and Nd') in the current and future periods, and determines investment () in the current period. The capital accumulation is formulated by K'=(1-δ)K+I where K and K' are the capital stock in the two periods, and O is the depreciation rate. The production functions in the two periods are Y = F(K, N) and Y' = F(K', N') and they follow the standard properties with decreasing marginal product of labor and decreasing marginal product of capital. Now, suppose there is a natural disaster that destroys part of the nation's capital stock "K" in the current period. Use the two figures of the labor market and product market in the current period to show how the decrease in current capital stock K impacts the equilibrium real wage w, labor employment N, real interest rate r, and aggregate output Y in the current period. [20 pts]Hint: Plot the supply and demand of the current labor market (with the real wage "w" on the vertical axis and the labor employment "N" on the horizontal axis) and the supply and demand of the current product market (with the real interest rate "y" on the vertical axis and the aggregate output "Y"' on the horizontal axis). Then, show how the decrease in K affects the supply and demand in the two markets and how the equilibrium outcomes in the two markets change. (Two more questions on the next page)

Consider the Solow growth model without population growth or technological change. The parameters of the model are given by s = 0.2 (savings rate) and S= 0.05 (depreciation rate). Let k denote capital per worker, y denote output per worker, c denote consumption per worker. [20 pts] (a) Suppose that the production function of aggregate outputs is Y = where K denotes capital inputs, and N denotes labor inputs. Rewrite the production function in per-worker terms, and find the steady-state level of capital per worker. [8 pts]

(b) The golden rule level of the capital per worker,, maximizes consumption per worker in steady-state. To obtain , should citizens save more or less? [12 pts]
