There is no need to put constants into
variables. In this case, local macros
would serve as well. Also, you save
on storage.
* PARAMETERS
local ky0 1
local delta .06
* REAL GDP
gen Y = rgdpl * pop
* INVESTMENT
ren ki I
* CAPITAL
g miss = mi(Y)
bysort code miss (year): gen K = Y[1] * `ky0'
by code: replace K = (1 - `delta') * K[_n - 1] + I if _n > 1
