Taylor Rule, steady state variables

[MCJM]

Hi,

I would like to replicate a Taylor Rule in Dynare where the GDP is at steady state. I have found in p.15 of "Dynare Reference Manual" for version 4.4.3. However, I don't know how to use this command. Could anyone help me please?

The form of the equation is as follows: int = r -theta*(pi-[Pi at steady state])-rho*(ln(Y)-ln([Y at steady state]))-[Pi at steady state]

Here it is what the Reference Manual says about this topic but it is not clear how to apply it:

STEADY_STATE (MODEL_EXPRESSION) [Operator]
This operator is used to take the value of the enclosed expression at the steady state. A typical usage is in the Taylor rule, where you may want to use the value of GDP at steady state to compute the output gap.

Thank you in advance!

That would be

Code: Select all

int = r -theta*(pi-steady_state(pi))-rho*(ln(Y)-ln(steady_state(y)))-steady_state(pi)
