HW 3 Part 2

This document compares key parameters and outputs of the Solow growth model for two hypothetical countries, Country A and Country B. It shows that when the saving rate, depreciation rate, capital share, labor supply, and total factor productivity are equal between the two countries, the steady-state levels of capital, output, and per capita capital and output will be equal as well. Graphs depict the investment, depreciation, capital stock, and output over time as the capital stock changes for each country.
