We present an algorithm and software routines for computing nth-order approximate solutions to dynamic, discrete-time rational expectations models around a nonstochastic steady state. We apply these routines to investigate the optimal monetary policy with commitment in an optimizing-agent model...

We compute the optimal Ramsey policy in a New Keynesian model where the steady state suffers from monopolistic and tax distortions. We show that the optimal monetary policy in this environment displays asymmetric responses to shocks to optimally inflate the economy (slightly) at times when it...

Several authors have implemented computer code automating the application of perturbation methods for constructing solutions for dynamic economic models.\cite{sims01,chen99,collard,schmitt,judd98,anderson02} Such techniques facilitate the construction and use of nonlinear stochastic models for...

This paper describes an extension of the stack algorithm of Julliard, which makes it possible to (a) use any linear terminal condition, and (b) compute fixed points with the algorithm. Numerical results are presented for solving three different macroeconomic models including the Canada Model....

Anderson's papers describe a method for solving linear saddle point models. The numerical implementation of the algorithm has proved useful in a wide array of applications including analyzing linear perfect foresight models, and providing initial solutions and asymptotic constraints for...

The Anderson-Moore algorithm is a powerful method for solving linear saddle-point models. The algorithm has proved useful in a wide variety of applications, including analyzing linear perfect-foresight models and providing initial solutions and asymptotic constraints for nonlinear models. The...
