Which of the following relationships between the capital stock, investment, and depreciation is always true by definition?
Tap an answer. The explanation will appear here, including why each wrong option is wrong.
Not quite. D is correct.
By definition, net investment (ΔK) is gross investment minus depreciation. Therefore, any change in the capital stock equals gross investment minus depreciation.

3 · Analysis · Hard · Solow Growth Model
Suppose an economy is in a steady state where consumption per worker, (C/N)*, is below the golden-rule level. Without knowing whether the capital-labor ratio is above or below the golden-rule level, what can be stated with certainty?
Tap an answer. The explanation will appear here, including why each wrong option is wrong.
Not quite. is correct.
Because steady-state consumption per worker lies below the maximum (golden-rule) level on both sides of the golden-rule peak, the capital stock could be either too low or too high. Therefore, a reduction in the saving rate could either raise or lower steady-state consumption.
