Code

k_grid_next = np.empty_like(k_grid)

for i in range(x):
    k_grid_next[i] = k_update(k_grid[i], α, β)
  • Add y label for plot in 24.6.3
  • Remove these duplicated lines
R_vals = np.linspace(0.3, 1)
model = create_olg_model()

Content

  • Add a comparison to the Solow-Swan growth model.
  • 'Long run growth' -> 'Long-run growth'.
  • Explain the Euler equation and give economic intuition.
  • firm problem -> firm's problem.
  • factor price $\times$ factor (
    \max_{k_t, \ell_t} \{ k^{\alpha}_t \ell_t^{1-\alpha} - R_t k_t - \ell_t w_t \}
    to
    \max_{k_t, \ell_t} \{ k^{\alpha}_t \ell_t^{1-\alpha} - R_t k_t - w_t \ell_t \}.
  • Add assumption for labor market clearing condition to get $\ell = 1$.
  • 'interest rate' -> 'gross interest rate'.
  • Recalibrate the model to get an interest rate > 0.
  • '45 degree' -> '45-degree'.
  • Add an explanation on CRRA (add a sentence: as $\gamma \to 1$ this becomes a log utility).
  • Lecture on Ponzi scheme and OLG? @longye-tian for more details.

This commit is related to #434. In particular, it involves:

Code:
- `x=1000` to `n=1000`;
- vectorize `k_grid_next`
- add y labels to plot in 24.6.3
- remove duplicate codes

Content
- Add hyphen to 'long run growth' and '45 degree line'

- firm problem to firm's problem to match with the title

- interest rate to gross interest rate to match with the content later

- change $\ell_t w_t$ to $w_t \ell_t$ to match the order with $\R_t k_t$

Dear John @jstac ,

I updated the olg.md lecture according to #434.

This pull request deals with the last two suggestions in #434.

Best,
