We study the optimal economic growth model based on the controlled Kaldor businesscycle model and formulated as an infinite-horizon optimal control problem. We show that the original problem is approximated by standard problems on finite intervals and obtain conditions guaranteeing that the Pontryagin maximum principle for the problem under consideration holds in the normal form with explicitly given adjoint variable.
