We consider two known methods for increasing the order of a deterministic error in the Euler scheme and a new method based on the simultaneous estimation of a desired functional with two different time steps and the corresponding extrapolation. We propose to use the new method in the weight modification of the Euler scheme for the calculation of the gradient of the solution to a stationary diffusion equation. The results of numerical experiments are given.
