What policies can the government of a free-market economy implement to stimulate economic growth?
For a high-income economy like the United States, what aggregate production function elements are most important in bringing about growth in GDP per capita? What about a middle-income country such as Brazil? A low-income country such as Niger?
What are the "advantages of backwardness" for economic growth?
Use an example to explain why, after periods of rapid growth, a low-income country that has not caught up to a high-income country may feel poor.
An economy starts off with a GDP per capita of \$5,000. How large will the GDP per capita be if it grows at an annual rate of \(2 \%\) for 20 years? \(2 \%\) for 40 years? \(4 \%\) for 40 years? \(6 \%\) for 40 years?
