Appendix A: Benchmark Steady State

In the benchmark steady state, labor is distributed between the sectors according to

LT=—αL(1 - γ  L

αL(1 γ) + βLγ


LN =


βL Y     L

αL(1 - Y)+ βLY


The relative price of non-traded goods is


PN =


1   1-βL-βκ αZ βZ 1-βK

ηLN 1-βK Z 1-ακ  1-βK


. K'    ακ βκ       -βi

where η = αLακ αK r 1-αK 1-βκ β-1βκ eK

Capital is distributed between the sectors as follows

In the benchmark steady state, the levels of consumption of traded and nontraded
goods are equal to the respective outputs and are given by

CT = YT = ZαZLTαLKTαK

CN = YN = ZβZLβNLKNβK                     (A.7)

where we normalise AT = AN = 1 and we assume a zero depreciation rate such that the
steady state levels of private and public investment are zero.
