Examples using the Comparative Statics Wizard

All rights reserved.

 

Once the Comparative Statics Wizard add-in (CSWiz.xla) is installed, you can explore the examples below to see how the CS Wiz can be put to work. The Comparative Statics Wizard is extremely flexible -- any problem solved by Excel's Solver can be run through the Wizard to get comparative statics analyses. If you come up with an interesting example of your own, let me know and we can make it available on this site.
