# Now we construct the $\texttt{AggShkDstn}$ that specifies the evolution of the dynamics of the $\texttt{KSEconomy}$.

Now there is only one possible outcome for each aggregate state (the KS aggregate states are very simple), therefore, each aggregate state has only one possible condition which happens with probability 1.
