Dynare forums

hello, everybody

I encounter this problem: "Blanchard Kahn conditions are not satisfied: indeterminacy " when I simulate a DSGE model. That would be fine if anybody can solve it, thank you very very much! I come from China, my english is not quite well, so I can't write a lot. my email address is yshguo@gdufs.edu.cn.

Best wishes

dear all

.mod file has problem, now I send modified .mod file again. thanks a lot.

You got colinearity problems with the model.
>> model_diagnostics(M_,options_,oo_)
model_diagnostic: the Jacobian of the static model is singular
there is 1 colinear relationships between the variables and the equations
Colinear variables:
c
ch
cf
p
m

hello, costa

thanks a lot for your response, your reply is very useful for me, I have modified some equations, now the problem has been resolved.

If model diagnostics show you such messages , how do you solve the problem by changing some equation?..
