Financial Mathematics

I will have a review session on Ordinary Annuities, Sunday at 2:15 in Rice Hall 5th floor.

Nora is sick today and will not be able to hold office hours.

There will be no homework 13. I will add more office hours and review sessions, to help the students taking the final.

The final is on December 8, 7-10pm.

The final covers lectures 2 trough 37, more precisely:
Simple Interest – sections 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9
Discount Interest – sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5
Compound Interest – sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7
Ordinary Annuities – sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6
Other Annuities – sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6
Debt Retirement Methods – sections 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7
Bonds – lecture slides and practice problems

There will be 15 problems on the final: 5 similar to the ones from exam 1, 5 similar to the ones from exam 2. The last 5 will be from the material presented after the second exam. They will be similar to the examples presented in class, homework assignments 11 and 12, and the bonds practice problems (see the previous post).
