*********************************
* Programs to reproduce figures
*********************************
makefiguremotiv.m  generates figure 1 and 2 in the paper
newbeg_fig3.m  generates figure 3 in the paper
newbeg_fig4.m  generates figure 4 in the paper
newbeg_fig5.m  generates figure 5 in the paper
newbeg_fig6_tay.m  generates figure 6 in the paper
newbeg_fig7_tay.m  generates figure 7 in the paper

*********************************
* Programs called from newbeg_*
*********************************

tayoil5_parm.m  contains structural paramters of the model (to be chosen)
tayoil5_def.m   contains composite parameters of the model	

tayoil_mod5 contains the model with an interest rate setting rule 
(Taylor-type rules)

tayoil_mod5opt contains the model with targeting rules 
(minimizing a quadratic loss function)

Note: the coefficients for the instrument rules and the targeting rules 
are chosen in mfiles that produce the figures.

calc_impulses.m and calcimperfect_impulses compute the impulse responses 
to the shock. solve_tayoil_mod5 and solve_tayoil_mod5opt call the solution
algorithms of aim.

****************************************
* Programs to drop chart data in tables*

the following files are found in U:\TQS\luca\codesjme\Charts and Tables\

chart_to_table1_2.m     converts figures 1 and 2 into excel spreadsheets figure1.xls and figure2.xls
chart_to_table3.m       converts figure 3 into excel spreadsheet figure3.xls
chart_to_table4.m       converts figure 4 into excel spreadsheet figure4.xls
chart_to_table5.m       converts figure 5 into excel spreadsheet figure5.xls
chart_to_table6.m       converts figure 6 into excel spreadsheet figure6.xls
chart_to_table7.m       converts figure 7 into excel spreadsheet figure7.xls
