Summary Value function iteration is one of the standard tools for the solution of dynamic general equilibrium models if the dimension of the state space is one ore two. We consider three kinds of models: the deterministic and the stochastic growth model and a simple heterogenous agent model....

Value function iteration is one of the standard tools for the solution of the Ramsey model. We compare six different ways of value function iteration with regard to speed and precision. We find that value function iteration with cubic spline interpolation between grid points dominates the other...
