Dear all,

I have a little problem with dsample.

E.g. if I use it like:

// Adapted from Jesus Fernandez-Villaverde, Basic RBC Model with Monopolistic Competion Philadelphia, March 3, 2005

var y c k i l w r;
varexo z;
parameters beta psi delta alpha sigma epsilon;

alpha = 0.33;
beta = 0.99;
delta = 0.023;
psi = 1.75;
sigma = (0.007/(1-alpha));
epsilon = 10;

model;
(1/c) = beta*(1/c(+1))*(1+r(+1)-delta);
psi*c/(1-l) = w;
c+i = y;
y = (k(-1)^alpha)*(exp(z)*l)^(1-alpha);
w = y*((epsilon-1)/epsilon)*(1-alpha)/l;
r = y*((epsilon-1)/epsilon)*alpha/k(-1);
i = k-(1-delta)*k(-1);
end;

initval;
k = 9;
c = 0.7;
l = 0.3;
w = 2.00;
r = 0.00;
z = 0;
end;

endval;
z = 0.1;
end;

steady;

check;

simul(periods=1000);
dsample 60;
rplot k;

the the figure I obtain is not for the first 60 periods but for 1000 periods.

I try to reduce the time window. However, I get neither an error message nor does matlab display the desired figure.

Best

Hi

In Dynare 4.0.2 the dsample command is buggy. It will be fixed in the coming 4.0.3 release.

Thank you.

So I'll try it with an older version.

Best regards,

Chris
