Question 2: US Saving Rate
Go to the BEA web page () and get quarterly data for U.S. personal saving rate from 1980 to 2009. (Look for “Personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income” on Table 2.1 Personal Income and Its Disposition. Be smart and download the data, NOT copy them by hand). Plot the saving rate data over time (turn in the figure only do not show the table). What do you see? Can we find saving rate data for China? If so, do the same thing for the US.
Question 3: GDP Growth Rates Data
Go to Penn World Table (/php_site/pwt63/pwt63_form.php) and compute the average per capita real GDP growth rate for 10 countries between in 1971 and in 2000: you should choose 5 countries from “G7 countries” and another 5 countries should be less developed/developing countries and use “Real GDP per capita (Constant Prices: Laspeyres), derived from growth rates of c, g, i”. Briefly describe what you see in the data.

Question 2 Consider two consumers (consumer A and consumer B), which live for two periods. Both have income Y1 = 60 in the first period and Y2 = 40 in the second period. They can borrow and save at the interest rate r = 10%. Their utility functions are respectively: Consumer A’s utility function: U A (C1 , C 2 ) ln C1 ln C 2
(1 r )
C2 [ (1 r )]2 C1
Since they have the same income profile:
C1
C2 Y 40 Y1 2 60 1 r 1 r 1 r
Consumer A: C2 1 1.1 1 C1 C2 C C1 1.1
C2 Y1 = 210, Y2 = 0
New optimal choice
C1 = C2 = 100
C1 Clearly from the picture, the higher interest rate restricts Jill’s possible choices. Therefore, she will be worse off.
b. Suppose the interest rate increasetion in the first period? Is Jack better off or worse off than before the interest rate increase? Show your result in graphs. Jack is initially consuming his own income (he does not borrow or save):
北大微观经济学习题和答案 (6)
Chapter chapter4(1-2) answer下列问题:际产量是递减的,那么平均产量也一定是递减的,边际产量递减,但是只要存在MPL>APL ,平均产MPL<APL 的时候,平均产量才会递减1. 请回答(1) 如果边对不对?请解释之。
不对分析:因为量就会增加,只有在(2) 在实际生活中,我们很难找到厂商会在生产的第三阶段进行生产的情况,但是也会有例外。
你是否可出实际生活中人们有可能在第三阶段生产的例子。
存在:分析:改革开放以前的国有企业,政府为了达到充分就业的目标,在企业里面安排了过多职工,出现“人浮于事”的现象。
此时就是在第三阶段生产,最直接的表现就是国有企业的效率低下,这个时候如果进行裁员反而会提高企业的效率。
一些社会福利性、公益性的企业,这种企业不是单纯以利润最大化为目标,同时要考虑到社会福利最大化,一般说来福利和效率是不可兼得的于是,会出现在第三阶段生产的情况。
(3) 如果边际报酬递减规律不成立的话,整个世界的食品供应就可以在花盆中进行?这句话对还是错?为什么?对:因为如果边际报酬递减规律不成立,那么只要无限地增加劳动力的投入,而无需增加其它投入,就可以不断地增加产品,获得食物,于是整个世界的食品供应可以在花盆中进行。
(4) 如果总产量曲线是一条经过原点的直线,请说明并作出相应的平均产量曲线和边际产量曲线。
这样的总产量曲线是否有可能出现?为什么?分析: 可把生产函数写成Q=a*L+b*K所以AP L =a 、MP L =a ,为一条水平直线。
从长期来看,这个不符合边际报酬递减规律。
但是要注意边际报酬递减规律的前提。
所以短期内这种情况是可能出现的2、 假定某为:Q=-0.1L 3+6L (1)劳动的平均产量AP L =Q/L=QF.O.C : 解得: L=30所以当雇佣30人时,平均产量AP L 为极大(2) 劳动的边际产量MP L 为极大时雇用的劳动人数F.O.C 解得: L=20所以当雇佣20人的时,劳动的边际产量MP L 为极大(3) 平均产量与边际产量相等的时候劳动人数AP L =MP L即:-0.1L 2+6L+12=-0.3L 2+12L+12解得:L=30,L=0(舍去)所以当雇佣30人时,平均产量与边际产量相等(4) 请确定生产的三个阶段具体区间MP L =AP L 时,L=30MP L =0时,L=40.9,取整数L=41第一阶段(0,30)第二阶段(30,40]第三阶段 [41,∞)厂商只有一种可变要素劳动L,生产一种产品Q,固定成本为既定,短期生产函数2+12LAP L 为极大时雇用的劳动人数=-0.1L 2+6L+12L0.260L L =−+=AP L∂∂20.31212L QMP L L L ∂==−++∂0.6120LdMP L dL =−+=(5) 假如每人工资W=360 元,产品价格P=30 元,求利润极大化时雇用的劳动人数利润极大化时,即: -0.3L 2+12L+12=12解得:L=40所以雇佣40人时,利润极大化。

微观经济学课后习题参考答案第一章参考答案:一、名词解释西方经济学:西方经济学是研究既定制度下稀缺资源的配置和利用问题的学科。
机会成本:当把一定的资源用来生产某种产品时所放弃的其他产品的最大收益。
资源配置:是指在各种可供选择的用途中,一个社会如何把经济资源分配到不同的生产部门、不同企业以及不同的社会各成员中,以取得最大的经济效果。
实证分析:主要涉及对经济现象的分析和预测。
规范分析:主要涉及对经济现象做出“好与坏”的判断。
二、选择题BCBCD三、判断题√√√X√√四、简答题1、请简单介绍微观经济学的基本研究内容。
答:微观经济学研究的基本内容主要有:(1)、均衡价格理论(2)、消费者行为理论(3)、生产者行为理论主要包括:投入-产出理论、成本-收益理论和市场实现理论。
而市场实现理论是生产者行为理论的第三个部分,分析不同市场中生产者利润最大化的实现问题。
这里的不同市场是指:完全竞争市场和不完全竞争市场。
(4)、生产要素市场理论,由生产要素的需求理论和生产要素的供给理论组成。
(5)、一般均衡论和福利经济学(6)、市场失灵和微观经济政策2、西方经济学中的实证分析和规范分析有什么区别?请举例说明。
答:两者的区别:(1)实证经济学企图超脱和排斥一切价值判断,只研究经济本身的内在规律,并根据这些规律,分析和预测人们经济行为的效果。
规范经济学则以一定的价值判断为基础,是以某些标准来分析处理经济问题,树立经济理论的前提,作为制定经济政策的依据,并研究如何才能符合这些标准;(2)实证经济学所要回答的是“是什么”的问题,或者是“对经济问题如何解决”;规范经济学是以一定的价值判断为基础,提出某些准则,作为判断经济事物的好坏以及制定经济政策的依据,它力求说明的是“应该是什么”的问题,或者是“对经济问题应该如何解决”;(3)实证经济学排斥一切价值判断,只研究经济本身的内在规律,因此实证经济的内容具有客观性,即不以人们的意志为转移,所得的结论可以根据事实来进行检验。

第三章效用论二、名词解释1.效用:就是人们通过消费某种商品或劳务所产生的满足某种欲望的程度,是人们主观心理感觉。
2.边际效用:指消费者在一定时间内增加或减少一单位商品的消费所得到的效用量的增量或减量。
英文简写为MU。
3.边际效用递减规律:在一定时间内,在其它商品的消费数量不变的条件下,随着消费者对某种商品消费量的增加,消费者增加的最后一单位消费所得到的效用是递减的。
4.无差异曲线:表示两种商品的不同数量的组合,给消费者所带来的效用完全相同的一条曲线。
5.边际替代率:边际替代率(marginal rate of substitution):为了保持同等的效用水平,消费者要增加1单位X物品就必须放弃一定量的Y物品,这二者之比率被称为边际技术替代率。
6.边际替代率递减规律:随着某种商品和服务的消费量增加,为了保持总效用不变,消费者愿意放弃的其他商品和服务的数量越来越小,即这种商品能够替代的其他商品的数量越来越小。
7.恩格尔系数(Engel’s coefficient):用于食物的支出占总支出的比例。
8.恩格尔定律:一个家庭收入越少,其恩格尔系数越大;一个国家越穷其恩格尔系数越大,反之,富国的恩格尔系数就小。
9.替代效应:在保持实际收入水平不变既效用水平不变的情况下,一种商品的价格变化,导致两种商品的相对价格发生变化,消费者增加跌价商品的购买量以代替其价格相对上涨的商品,这种现象称为替代效应。
10.收入效应:一种商品的价格变化,导致实际收入的变化,由实际收入变化引起的向另一条无差异曲线的移动而导致购买量变化的现象,称为收入效应。
11.价格效应:当消费者的偏好和货币收入不变,一种商品的价格变化导致替代效应和收入效应的产生,这两者之和为价格效应。
三、问答题1.如何用无差异曲线分析消费者均衡的实现?答:(1)无差异曲线分析是西方经济学家用来研究如何实现收入的有效配置的常用工具。
无差异曲线是表示消费者对两种或两组商品的不同数量组合有同样偏好的曲线。

微观经济学课后复习题参考答案
《微观经济学》课后复习题参考答案第一章导论1.什么是经济学,资源的稀缺性和选择性假定的意义何在?参考答案:经济学就是研究如何将稀缺的资源有效地配置到相互竞争的用途之中以使人类欲望得到最大满足的科学。
或者说,经济学就是研究选择问题的一门学科,即经济学是研究个人、企业和政府如何进行选择,才能把有限的资源得到合理地配置和有效地利用的一门学科。
资源的稀缺性是指相对于人类需要的无限性而言,再多的经济物品总是不足的。
由于资源是稀缺的,所以人们只能对资源的利用作出选择。
选择就要有标准,在微观经济学中这个标准就是消费者满足程度的最大化和厂商利润的最大化。
资源的稀缺性和选择性假定提出了经济学研究的三个基本问题,即生产什么、如何生产和为谁生产的问题。
2.举例说明现实生活中存在稀缺性、或不存在稀缺性的案例。
参考答案:根据自己生活中的体验举例说明(略)。
3.经济学研究的三个基本问题是什么?参考答案:经济学研究的三个基本问题是生产什么、如何生产和为谁生产的问题。
生产什么涉及资源在产品之间的配置;如何生产涉及要素在生产中的配置;为谁生产涉及生产出来的产品在社会成员之间的配置(收入分配)。
4.试举例说明你身边存在的交替关系。
参考答案:略。
5.计算一下你学习的机会成本。
参考答案:机会成本(opportunity costs)就是在既定的资源和技术条件下,人们把某一既定资源投入于某一特定用途时,所放弃的利用该资源在其他用途中可能给选择者带来的最大收益。
选择上大学,直接花费(成本)包括4年学杂费和生活费,放弃的机会是4年时间所能够挣到的收入。
假定4年学杂费约3万元,4年生活费约4万元,则直接付出的货币为7万元左右;如果这4年时间参加工作,可以挣到4万元。
合计上4 年学的机会成本是11万元。
6.市场中的那只“看不见的手”能够做什么?参考答案:市场中那只“看不见的手”是指自由竞争的市场机制,它的主要作用就是调节资源配置。
具体体现在:通过市场价格信号,使市场经济主体做出反应和选择(3W),使得经济资源在部门和企业间流动;同时,“看不见的手”还能够决定收入分配,如工资和利息分别是劳动力和资本的价格。

We can get the real GDP per capita in 1971 and 2000 for each country from the Penn World Table. The above table presents real GDP per capita of five G7 countries and five developing countries in 1971 and in 2000. We can see from the second to sixth row real GDP per capita of G7 countries and rest of the rows present that of developing/less developed countries. From this information, the average growth rate can be obtained using the following formula:
I is investment. s is the fraction of output that saved. Assume L is constant

ln 2 ln(1 a)
If we plug a .02 into this formula, the result is 35.002. Thus it takes around 35 years to double output with a growth rate of 2% per year.
Question 2: US Saving Rate
Go to the BEA web page () and get quarterly data for U.S. personal saving rate from 1980 to 2009. (Look for “Personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income” on Table 2.1 Personal Income and Its Disposition. Be smart and download the data, NOT copy them by hand). Plot the saving rate data over time (turn in the figure only do not show the table). What do you see? Can we find saving rate data for China? If so, do the same thing for the US. Answer: Go to webpage and find the path: Home > National Economic Accounts> Interactive Table Home> Table Selection, select “Section 2 - Personal Income and Outlays”, then choose “Table 2.1. Personal Income and Its Disposition (A) (Q)”. In the bottom of table, find “Personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income”, download and plot it over time, which shows a significant decreasing trend of saving rate from around 10% to 1~2% since 1980 in US. However, It started to increase in the beginning of 2008.
c) We use the following equation to solve the steady state

If real GDP grows at 2% a year, how many years does it take for GDP to double? What is the general formula for the doubling of a time series that grows at x percent a year? Answer: In the general case, we are interested in the solution to k in the equation
The results are given in the sixth column. They show that the G7 countries or rich countries might have higher average growth rate than developing/less developed countries or poor countries, which indicates barriers to growth among many poor countries.

Question 3: GDP Growth Rates Data
Go to Penn World Table (/php_site/pwt63/pwt63_form.php) and compute the average per capita real GDP growth rate for 10 countries between in 1971 and in 2000: you should choose 5 countries from “G7 countries” and another 5 countries should be less developed/developing countries and use “Real GDP per capita (Constant Prices: Laspeyres), derived from growth rates of c, g, i”. Briefly describe what you see in the data. Answer:
Ct (1 s )Yt
b) Divide
Y , C , I and K by L . Denote these per-capita variables as y, c, i and k respectively.
Show how the equations of the model change. c) Solve for the steady state value of the capital stock as a function of the parameters How many steady states are there? d) What is the golden rule? How dose the golden rule tell you what the saving rate should be? Show how to solve the golden rule saving rate. e) Suppose that the economy is in the golden rule steady state with optimal saving rate s g . Now assume that the saving rate drops to sl , which is lower than s g . Draw a graph with time on the
