Description This paper shows the way of solving linear difference model under rational expectations. The whole procedure is described in general form. The conditions for existence of unique solution are summarized. The system is solved first for the unstable part and then for the stable part to get the final solution. Some theoretical examples for the macroeconomic model of closed economy are made. A reaction of agents to shocks, when anticipated or not, is examined. An influence of distinct types of Phillips curve on an adjusment process is discussed. An application for the Czech economy is made. The results are illustrated in figures and commented.
