This paper derives a fifth-order perturbation solution to DSGE models. The paper develops a new notation that reduces the notational complexity of high-order solutions and yields a faster code. The new notation consists of new matrix forms of high-order multivariate chain rules and a new...

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...

This paper introduces a nonlinear certainty-equivalent approximation method for dynamic stochastic problems. We first introduce a novel, stable, and efficient method for computing the decision rules in deterministic dynamic economic problems. We use the results as nonlinear and global...

Recently, there has been growing concern that human activities may be affecting the global climate through growing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG). Such swimming could have major impacts on economic activity and society. For the Nigerian case, the study uses multisector...

DSGE models are the main tool for analysing various questions in problems of monetary, business cycle theory and fiscal policy problems, growth and other fields in international macroeconomics and macroeconomics. Many macroeconomic publications use the DSGE framework. A consensus has been...

We introduce a novel simulated certainty equivalent approximation (SCEQ) method for solving dynamic stochastic problems. Our examples show that SCEQ can quickly solve high-dimensional finite- or infinite-horizon, stationary or non- stationary dynamic stochastic problems with hundreds of state...

This paper compares different solution methods for computing the equilibrium of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models with recursive preferences such as those in Epstein and Zin (1989 and 1991) and stochastic volatility. Models with these two features have recently become popular,...

Many algorithms that provide approximate solutions for dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) models employ the generalized Schur factorization since it allows for a flexible formulation of the model and exempts the researcher from identifying equations that give raise to infinite...

Klein (2000) advocates the use of the Schur decomposition of a matrix pencil to solve linear rational expectations (RE) models. Meanwhile his algorithm has become a center piece in several computer codes that provide approximate solutions to (non-linear) dynamic stochastic general equilibrium...
