Population Growth and Technological Progress - Work It Out In the nation of Winknam, the capital share of GDP is 40 percent, the average growth in output is 5.0 percent per year, the depreciation rate is 5.0 percent per year, and the capital-output ratio is 5.5. Suppose that the production function is Cobb- Douglas and that Winknam has been in a steady state. Round answers to two places after the decimal when necessary. b. In the initial steady state, what is the marginal product of capital (MPK)? MPK

Consider an investment project, which behaves according to the cash flow (in local currency) below, as well as the respective inflations for the period. In view of the above and knowing that the capital cost of the project is 15% per year, it is requested: a) The values ​​of NPV and IRR b) A graphical sketch of NPVs versus interest rates  c) Decision on the feasibility of the project regarding the IRR and NPV indicators Anos = years Fluxo de caixa = cash flow Taxa de inflação do período = period inflation rate

K Assume that Ideko's market share will increase by 0.40 percent per year as shown in the table, (e.g., Ideko's market share will be 10.00% in 2006). What production capacity will Ideko require each year for the next five years? When will an expansion become necessary (i.e., when will production volume exceed the current level by 50%)? e. What production capacity will Ideko require each year for the next five years? First compute the projected annual market share. Then, using these projections, calculate the projected annual production volume: (Round the volumes to one decimal place and the percentage of market share to two decimal places.) dd Sales Data Market Size (000 units) Market Share Production Volume (000 units) Data table Growth/Year 2005 4.80% 0.40% % (Click on the following icon in order to copy its contents into a spreadsheet.) - X Ideko Sales Assumptions Sales Data Growth/Year 2005 Market Size (000 units) Market Share 4.80% 10.000 0.40% 9.6% Check answer

World Bank data on a developing country shows per capita incomes of $4,500 for urban residents and $3,200 for rural residents. Migration from rural to urban areas has slowed the growth of urban incomes to a 3.0% average annual rate while rural per capita incomes grew 4.5% annually.  If the historic growth rates continue into the future, how many years will it take for incomes to equalize?   Number of Years:

REQUIRED Calculate the Payback Period of Machine A (expressed in years, months and days).  Calculate the Net Present Value of both  Calculate the Accounting Rate of Return on initial investment (expressed to two decimal places) of both machines.                                                                                                      Calculate the Internal Rate of Return of Machine B (expressed to two decimal places).  If the time value of money is taken into account, which machine should be chosen? Why?  INFORMATION The directors of Lomax Ltd intend expanding the company and they have the choice of purchasing one of two machines at the end of 2022 viz. Machine A or Machine B. Both machines have a five-year life, with only Machine A having a residual value of R300 000. The annual volume of production of each machine is estimated at 6 000 pallets (comprising 500 bricks each), which can be sold at R520 per pallet. Depreciation is calculated on the machines using the…

a. In​ 2000, the population of a country was approximately 5.76 million and by 2050 it is projected to grow to 10 million. Use the exponential growth model A=A0ekt​, in which t is the number of years after 2000 and A0 is in​ millions, to find an exponential growth function that models the data.   b. By which year will the population be 11 million?
