Fund F accumulates at a rate of δFt = 1/1 + t . Fund G accumulates at the rate of δGt = 4t/1 + 2t^2 . LetF (t) and G(t) denote the amount in fund F and the amount in fund G respectively at time t withF (0) = G(0). Define a new function H(t) by H(t) = F (t) − G(t). Use Calculus to find the time twhen the function H(t) is a maximum.

Consider two assets with the following cash flow streams: Asset A generates $4 at t=1, $3 at t=2, and $10 at t=3. Asset B generates $2 at t=1, $X at t=2, and $10 at t=3. Suppose X=6 and the interest rate r is constant. For r=0.1, calculate the present value of the two assets. Determine the set of all interest rates {r} such that asset A is more valuable than asset Draw the present value of the assets as a function of the interest rate. Suppose r=0.2. Find the value X such that the present value of asset B is 12. Suppose the (one-period) interest rates are variable and given as follows: r01=0.1,r12=0.2, r23=0.3. Calculate the yield to maturity of asset A. (You can use Excel or ascientific calculator to find the solution numerically.)
