Abstract

Our general goal in this paper is to show how toimplement in GAMS standard deterministic nonlinearmacro models, and stochastic linear macro models withrational expectations. We will also present basicconcepts on solution methods and policy analysis forthese kinds of models. As a practical illustration, wewill use some well known teaching and experimentalmodels in the macroeconomic literature.
