The optimal allocation
1. Introduce production into the overlapping generation model. Study the model by Diamond (1965), in which he …nds that the OLG model can be dynamic ine¢ cient 2. Whether the timing of taxes matters (LS Chapter 10). e.g., If the government cuts the tax rate to stimulate the economy, what is its e¤ect on the aggregate consumption? If the government increases its spending (building railways, infrastructure), will it have a big impact on the aggregate consumption?

Overlapping Generation Model with Production
Model Setup Dynamic Ine¢ ciency
The idea of Golden-rule is to …nd the optimal allocation that maximizes the welfare of households along the BGP. This criteria ignores the initial conditions and the transition from the initial condition to the BGP. We look at the social planner’ s problem L = u (cy , co ) + µ f (k) co 1+n cy nk
where f (k ) = F (Kt / Nt , 1)

First of all, the social planner will choose MPK = n, which is the standard result on the nature of the Golden rule de…ned by Phelps. (δ = 0, g = 0) If MPK > n, then the economy is in dynamic ine¢ cient. In the in…nite horizon model, it means that if the planner discards capital, it will increase the interest rate and households obtain a higher consumption level for ever. Second, it looks as if households maximize utility according to the interest rate n.

Balanced Growth Path

Macroeconomic Theory II B. Zhao
Because there is no productivity growth. In the balanced growth path (BGP), the output/labor ratio is constant. (also the consume/labor ratio) Therefore, K t +1 Kt = Kt+1 / Nt+1 Nt+1 = kNt Nt = nKt Nt+1 1 Kt / Nt Nt
