Oscilating or alternating IRFs

It means that there is a complex eigenvalue leading to oscillations. Usually, when people have this problem in the forum, it comes from them ignoring the Dynare timing convention and then torturing the timing until the BK conditions are satisfied. When doing so, the correct economic timing is ignored and oscillating IRFs result.

The reason is most likely

Timing of capital in two sector economy

Hello all, I am building a two-sectoral model, and I have a question about the timing of sectoral-capital variables: In my model, T and N are sectors, hence kT is capital in sector T and kN is capital in sector N. Then, I assume that the economy’s aggregate capital is simply: k = kT + kN. However, I assume only one law of motion for aggregate capital such that: k = (1-delta)*k(-1) + i - written in Dynare language. It is clear to me that k is a predetermined variable and should be treated as su…
