Marginal Product of Capital
How is AK Technology possible?
There is an increasing return scale
to the knowledge. Many firms or
people can use the same designs
and formula at the same time or
duplicate them many times in the
production process.

Does an Advancement in the Technology Increase
the Real Wage Rate of Every one Equally?
• With mobility of labour across regions and sectors
introduction of new technology should increase
wages of all types of workers
– But
• Wage rates in the high tech and manufacturing
sectors have grown at higher rate than in the
service sectors.
• New technology replaces old technology and
people with obsolete technology may become
redundant and may spend a long time before
finding a new job.

Endogenous Growth Model:Role of Human Capital
• Ideas come from skilled trained people
• These ideas are translated into tools
• Ideas are non-rivalrous; Many people can use it at
the same time can be found in books, journals,
manuals and papers and reports
• Better tools allow production of more and high
quality goods
– Examples
– Cars, computers, trains, planes, medicine, TV,
Phone Internet, Rockets; high yielding varieties
of crops, cloning (?)

Three Sectors in the Romer’s Endogenous Growth

• Research Sector: Universities/ research labs
produce ideas
• Intermediate sector: Takes those ideas to
make tools and machines
• Final Goods sector used those ideas to
produce consumer goods.

Main Features of the Romer Model
1. Constant return to K and L but increasing return to
scale relative to all inputs
2. Imperfect competition in the intermediate goods
sector
3. Inventors can extract profits by selling patent rights
to producers of intermediate goods
4. Increase in stock of knowledge relates to number
of people working in the research
5. Research drives up productivity in the whole
economy by the arbitrage condition

Thus marginal cost pricing is not profitable for a research
firm. Government need to subsidise to produce optimal
amount of research.
Lecture 6
27
Growth is prevented by lack of optimal research for
the following reasons
1. Market values research according to the stream of profit that are earned
from the new design but market does not see how the current research
raises productivity in the future.
2. There is a missing market for research. Also there is positive externality
or “spill over” of current research and “standing on the shoulder” effect.
3. There is a danger of “stepping on toes” –there may be too many
researcher either duplicating the same research work, which may provide
negative externality.
4. There is “too little” research because of monopoly power due to patent
rights though profit incentives are vital for innovation of new ideas.

Exercises
• Unbounded growth with AK Technology
• Link between research, intermediate and final
goods sectors in Romer’s Endogenous Growth
Model
• Production function in the final goods sector
• Production function in the Research sector
• Why is not larger size of population necessarily an
obstacle for economic growth?
• Intermediate markets for research products: how
do research firms determine price of research
products?
