Assuming no population growth or technological progress, find the steady-state capital stock per worker, output per worker, and consumption per worker as a function of the saving rate and the depreciation rate. c. Suppose that the country wants to increase its steady-state value of output per worker. What steady- state value of the capital-labor ratio is needed to double the steady-state value of output per capita? What fraction of income would households have to save to achieve a steady-state level of output per worker that is twice as high as in Part (b)? d. Find the Golden Rule capital-labor ratio and the associated saving rate.
