    r'''
    Computes Euler errors for the FOC for savings in the steady state.
    This function is usually looped through over J, so it does one
    lifetime income group at a time.

    .. math::
        c_{j,s,t}^{-\sigma} = e^{-\sigma g_y}\biggl[\chi^b_j\rho_s(b_{j,s+1,t+1})^{-\sigma} + \beta\bigl(1 - \rho_s\bigr)\Bigl(1 + r_{t+1}\bigl[1 - \tau^{mtry}_{s+1,t+1}\bigr]\Bigr)(c_{j,s+1,t+1})^{-\sigma}\biggr]

    Args:
        r (array_like): the real interest rate
        w (array_like): the real wage rate
        b (Numpy array): household savings
        b_splus1 (Numpy array): household savings one period ahead
        b_splus2 (Numpy array): household savings two periods ahead
        n (Numpy array): household labor supply
        bq (Numpy array): household bequests received
        factor (scalar): scaling factor converting model units to dollars
        tr (Numpy array): government tranfers to household
        theta (Numpy array): social security replacement rate for each
            lifetime income group
        e (Numpy array): effective labor units
        rho (Numpy array): mortality rates
        tau_c (array_like): consumption tax rates
        etr_params (Numpy array): parameters of the effective tax rate
            functions
        mtry_params (Numpy array): parameters of the marginal tax rate
            on capital income functions
        t (int): model period
        j (int): index of ability type
        p (OG-USA Specifications object): model parameters
        method (str): adjusts calculation dimensions based on 'SS' or
            'TPI'

    Returns:
        euler (Numpy array): Euler error from FOC for savings
