Policy function calculation from value function iterations

 

We consider the following mixed two-state model with leisure utility:

 

Model 1

 

 

where

 

 

Each constant labor can be computed from

and

   for state 1

 

and

   for state 2

 

Differently from what we did in 0801, we calculate the each policy function separately and randomly pick their index number.

 

 

We also consider the following mixed two-state model with leisure utility:

 

Model 2

 

 

where

 

 

Each constant labor can be computed from

and

   for state 1

 

and

   for state 2

 

 

We also combine the changes of thetafs and function ffs at the same time.

 

Model 3

 

 

where

 

 

Each constant labor can be computed from

and

   for state 1

 

and

   for state 2
