Chapter 1, Problem 6P

The following information is available for a bank account:

Date Deposits Withdrawals Interest Balance
5/1 1522.33
220.13 327.26
6/1
216.80 378.51
7/1
450.35 106.80
8/1
127.31 350.61
9/1

Note that the money earns interest which is computed as

Interest = i B i

where i = the interest rate expressed as a fraction per month, and B i the initial balance at the beginning of the month.

(a) Use the conservation of cash to compute the balance on 6/1, 7/1, 8/1, and 9/1 if theinterest rate is 1% per month ( i = 0.01 / month ) . Show each step in the computation.

(b) Write a differential equation for the cash balance in the form

d B d t = f ( D ( t ) , W ( t ) , i )

where t = time (months), D ( t ) = deposits as a function of time ($/month), W ( t ) = withdrawals as a function of time ($/month).

For this case, assume that interest is compounded continuously; that is, interest = i B .

(c) Use Euler's method with a time step of 0.5 month to simulate the balance. Assume that the deposits and withdrawals are applied uniformly over the month.

(d) Develop a plot of balance versus time for(a) and (c).

2. Sam and Deb have a weekly net income of $1500. They have a pet dog. Their monthly expenses, not related to housing, are $2875. They have savings of $32 000. They are considering two housing options: Option 1: Renting a 2-bedroom condo for $1650 a month, plus utilities averaging $210 a month Option 2: Buying a 2-bedroom condo for a down payment of $24 500, bi-weekly mortgage payments of $1100, and a monthly condo fee of $475 a) Determine the monthly cost of each housing option. Factoring in other expenses not related to housing, which one can Sam and Deb afford? b) Suppose their dog falls ill and they have to pay $85 every week to cover veterinarian and medical expenses. Calculate the additional monthly expenses. How much money would be available for savings if they choose housing option 2?
I bought sparrows at 3 for a penny, turtle doves at 2 for a penny, anddoves at 2 pence each. If I spent 30 pence buying 30 birds and boughtat least one of each kind of bird, how many birds of each kind did I buy?(This is a problem from Fibonacci’s Liber Abaci, 1202.)
