need help

Postby chahj78 » Thu May 05, 2011 4:50 am

Dear,

I need the help to find some error.

The error is that initial vaule is not incompatible with equations.

I am trying to figure it out. But still do not get it.

Thank you.

The error message results from division by 0. As you did not specify an initval-block, all variables are initialized to 0.

Moreover, you FOCs are most probably wrong. Consider for example the term in the second model equation:
Code: Select all
(phi_c+PSI/(v/(1-rho_lambda^2)))

In the non-stochastic steady state, PSI and v are both 0. Hence, in the steady state computation,
Code: Select all
PSI/(v/(1-rho_lambda^2))

results in a division of 0 by 0. This gives you the error message for equation 2.
