Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mathematical Theory of Investment This book has been written for the use of students of busim iti id public affairs. The fact that, with a few notable exceptions, colleges and universities have hitherto made no provision for courses in mathematics adapted to meet the needs of students trained for commercial careers and for the public service, is due in no small measure to the lack of a suitable textbook. In recent years the closer study of business methods and the extension of governmental control over many forms of industrial and financial activity have greatly emphasized the value, to students of finance, of a knowledge of what the Germans call "political arithmetic." In an attempt to meet the need for a book covering this field, some of the more important topics relating to the theory of interest and its application to the larger affairs of modern everyday life have been brought together. The following pages contain, in somewhat elaborated form, the substance of a course of lectures given annually for the last five years to the students in the course in commerce in the University of Wisconsin. While I have tried to make the book practical throughout, I have sought to make it a book of first principles rather than a guide to detailed practice. I trust that the reader will find the treatment adapted to present-day conditions and needs. I shall be gratified if I have in any way contributed to the more efficient training, in principles of sound finance, of the splendid body of young men who are going out from our courses in commerce to become leaders in the business world. In selecting topics for consideration, an effort has been made to avoid those that are still the subject of controversy. If this rule has been departed from in devoting some space to depreciation, it is on account of the great importance of the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems in the Mathematical Theory of Investment When my book on The Mathematical Theory of In vestment was written, considerable difficulty was experi enced in finding a sufficient number of practical problems with which to illustrate the theory. As every teacher of elementary mathematics knows, solutions of the problems in any book that is used from year to year soon become current among the student body, so that the usefulness of a limited book list is to a large extent destroyed.

Download or read book The Mathematics of Financial Modeling and Investment Management written by Sergio M. Focardi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-04-12 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: the mathematics of financial modeling & investment management The Mathematics of Financial Modeling & Investment Management covers a wide range of technical topics in mathematics and finance-enabling the investment management practitioner, researcher, or student to fully understand the process of financial decision-making and its economic foundations. This comprehensive resource will introduce you to key mathematical techniques-matrix algebra, calculus, ordinary differential equations, probability theory, stochastic calculus, time series analysis, optimization-as well as show you how these techniques are successfully implemented in the world of modern finance. Special emphasis is placed on the new mathematical tools that allow a deeper understanding of financial econometrics and financial economics. Recent advances in financial econometrics, such as tools for estimating and representing the tails of the distributions, the analysis of correlation phenomena, and dimensionality reduction through factor analysis and cointegration are discussed in depth. Using a wealth of real-world examples, Focardi and Fabozzi simultaneously show both the mathematical techniques and the areas in finance where these techniques are applied. They also cover a variety of useful financial applications, such as: * Arbitrage pricing * Interest rate modeling * Derivative pricing * Credit risk modeling * Equity and bond portfolio management * Risk management * And much more Filled with in-depth insight and expert advice, The Mathematics of Financial Modeling & Investment Management clearly ties together financial theory and mathematical techniques.

Book excerpt: Why the book is interesting today is that it still is important and the most authoritative work on how to value financial assets. "Williams combined original theoretical concepts with enlightening and entertaining commentary based on his own experiences in the rough-and-tumble world of investment." Williams' discovery was to project an estimate that offers intrinsic value and it is called the 'Dividend Discount Model' which is still used today by professional investors on the institutional side of markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the mathematics that underpins pricing models for derivative securities such as options, futures and swaps in modern markets. Models built upon the famous Black-Scholes theory require sophisticated mathematical tools drawn from modern stochastic calculus. However, many of the underlying ideas can be explained more simply within a discrete-time framework. This is developed extensively in this substantially revised second edition to motivate the technically more demanding continuous-time theory.

Download or read book Bond Math written by Donald J. Smith and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-07-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the theory behind bond math formulas Bond Math explores the ideas and assumptions behind commonly used statistics on risk and return for individual bonds and on fixed income portfolios. But this book is much more than a series of formulas and calculations; the emphasis is on how to think about and use bond math. Author Donald J. Smith, a professor at Boston University and an experienced executive trainer, covers in detail money market rates, periodicity conversions, bond yields to maturity and horizon yields, the implied probability of default, after-tax rates of return, implied forward and spot rates, and duration and convexity. These calculations are used on traditional fixed-rate and zero-coupon bonds, as well as floating-rate notes, inflation-indexed securities, and interest rate swaps. Puts bond math in perspective through discussions of bond portfolios and investment strategies. Critiques the Bloomberg Yield Analysis (YA) page, indicating which numbers provide reliable information for making decisions about bonds, which are meaningless data, and which can be very misleading to investors Filled with thought-provoking insights and practical advice, this book puts the intricacies of bond math into a clear and logical order.
