log-linearized vs linearized variables
Posted: Fri Oct 26, 2012 12:44 pm
Hi,
Is there a quick way to designate the log-linearized vs the linearized variables? I would like to linearize some variables and log-linearize the others. I understand that if I write 'exp(x)' instead of just 'x' in the non-linear model, it would log-linearize that variable but this makes equations not very readable. Is there a quick command such as in the example below that would do it without writing variables with 'exp'?
var c y k i ca;
var_log c y k;
Thanks for reply,
