Abstract

This tutorial provides students with programming experience while constructing and implementing the computable general equilibrium models. 

Qualifikationsziele

Students

• learn the programming language GAMS, the model language MCP and the meta-language MPSGE
• understand simple basic models and their extensions
• are able to implement the basic models independently both in MCP and MPSGE
• can modify the given models in order to capture other situations
• can interpret the results and link them to the relevant economic theory

Lehrinhalte

• Introduction to computable general equilibrium analysis
• Comparative static analysis of closed economy with two goods and two production factors
• Extensions of the basic model for closed economy with heterogeneous labor, heterogeneous households and endogenous labor supply
• Models of open economies: extension of the basic model for open economy with import tariffs and quotas as well as with international mobile capital
• General equilibrium models with imperfect competition on the goods markets
