function simulation = simul_static_model(samplesize, innovations)
% Simulates a stochastic static model (with arbitrary precision).
%
% INPUTS
% - samplesize [integer] scalar, number of periods for the simulation.
% - innovations [dseries] innovations to be used for the simulation.
%
% OUTPUTS
% - simulation [dseries] Simulated endogenous and exogenous variables.
%
% REMARKS
% [1] The innovations used for the simulation are saved in DynareOutput.exo_simul, and the resulting paths for the endogenous
% variables are saved in DynareOutput.endo_simul.
% [2] The last input argument is not mandatory. If absent we use random draws and rescale them with the informations provided
% through the shocks block.
