Directed technical change on Dynare

Dynare contributions and examples
1

Good evening everyone,

Is it possible to simulate a directed technical change growth model in Dynare ? If so, do you have codes as examples?

Thanks!

Best

That depends very much on the context. If you do perfect foresight simulations, that is possible.

Thank you.

When declaring steady state values and shock values for my exogenous processes, do I put the ln(value) or the value? I reckon Dynare interprets all variables in logs.

For example, if I the (exogenous) price of my commodity is 80 euros, should I write it down on Dynare as ln(80) ?

Thanks again

Unless instructed to to so (e.g. via the loglinear-option), Dynare interprets all variables as levels.
