Solow Growth Model | Part 1 | Model Intro & Solution | Intermediate Macroeconomics

Показать описание
In this video, I introduce a baseline version of the Solow growth model. The baseline model does not account for population growth or technological progress.

Chapters
0:00 - Introduction and Rambling
1:17 - Equations of the Solow Model
5:19 - Per Capita Variables and Equations (Useful!)
9:34 - Solution to the model
13:02 - Matlab Simulation

There are four primary equations for this version of the Solow model: the production function, capital accumulation, the resource constraint, and resource allocation (investment equals savings). I explain these equations in detail, then I rewrite them in per capita form. Writing the Solow model in per capita terms is useful, especially once population growth is introduced into the model.

The solution is a path for the endogenous variables of the model. I also present a numerical solution to the model using Matlab. Feel free to replicate my code and try it yourself.

This is simply great I saw lots of videos but no one could explain in such a good way. Guys don't leave without subscribing him.

The standard equation has (n+d)k, here we have (1-d)k

You try to give the video more brightness it will be great if you do

absolutely fantastic guide. I was looking for a video that explains the mathematical actions behind the equations like this one. it was so much easier to process. thanks for the great video you earned the sub.

Why is this in my first exam in intro to Macroeconomics? 😭

Great video! I have an exam tomorrow. I wanted to ask why is important for everything to be in per capita terms?

In the text book I have seen people taking Log both side of the capital accumulation equation. But u dont do that? what is the difference
