Timing of capital in two sector economy

Then, I assume that the economy’s aggregate capital is simply: k = kT + kN. However, I assume only one law of motion for aggregate capital such that: k = (1-delta)*k(-1) + i - written in Dynare language. It is clear to me that k is a predetermined variable and should be treated as su…
