Y=C+I
K’ = I + (1- δ)K
where K’ is the capital stock next year,
K is the capital stock this year,
I is investment this year, and
δ is the depreciation rate
Simplified Solow Growth Model
So the entire model is described by four equations:
Households: I=sY
Firms: Y = A K0.3
Capital Accumulation: K’ = I + (1- δ)K
GDP: Y=C+I
Rearranging terms:
I = s Y = s A K0.3
K’ = I + (1- δ)K = s A K0.3 + (1- δ)K
