Suppose that a war does not directly affect the capital stock, but that casualties reduce the labor force.Assume the economy was in a steady state before the war, the saving rate is unchanged, and the rate ofpopulation growth after the war is the same as it was before.

a) What is the immediate impact of the war on total output and on output per person?

b) What happens subsequently to output per worker in the postwar economy? Is the growth rate of outputper worker after the war smaller or greater than it was before the war?
