Problem Set 5(c)The movements of the Solow residual represents shocks to total factor productivity of an economy. Thus it may characterized by productivity slowdowns and growths of productivity in an economy. For example, a slowdown in productivity might result from increasing costs of energy or switching to a new technology while growth in productivity might be connected with increasing productivities of input factors labor and capital (e.g. labor productivity increases when the education of labor force is improving, capital productivity increases when a new technology brings efficiency advances)
