dear stephanie  
I have a problem at run of model. when I run it, this error message appears. please help me . how can I do to solve it? I send my mod file. Please help me  
the questuions are as follow:

Configuring Dynare …  
[mex] Generalized QZ.  
[mex] Sylvester equation solution.  
[mex] Kronecker products.  
[mex] Sparse kronecker products.  
[mex] Local state space iteration (second order).  
[mex] Bytecode evaluation.  
[mex] k-order perturbation solver.  
[mex] k-order solution simulation.  
[mex] Quasi Monte-Carlo sequence (Sobol).  
[mex] Markov Switching SBVAR.

Starting Dynare (version 4.3.3).  
Starting preprocessing of the model file …  
Found 26 equation(s).  
Evaluating expressions…done  
Computing static model derivatives:

- order 1  
Computing dynamic model derivatives:
- order 1
- order 2  
Processing outputs …done  
Preprocessing completed.

You are violating Dynare’s timing convention. If you use the beginning of period stock notation as in

```auto
k(+1)=(1-delta)*k+delta*i;
```

you need to use

```auto
predetermined_variables k;
```

The same applies to other predetermined variables. There should be at least one more. See the manual for more details.
