Abstract
This note provides an easy and quick instruction for solution and simulation of a
standard RBC model using Matlab.
The Matlab code introduced here is extremely compact and easy to hadle in the sense
that it requires neither external functions/sub-procedures nor benchmark data. The
solution method used in the code is standard undermined coe¢cient method (eigen decomposition
method) based on log-linearized system.

The code consists of six parts as follows,
1. Parameter proc
2. Steady State proc
3. Model proc
4. Linearization proc
5. Solution proc
6. Simulation proc
