Assets Typically asset values are uncertain. Incorporating uncertainty is difficult at this stage so we will instead study assets assuming that we can see the future with perfect certainty

Selling An Asset Suppose the value of an asset changes with time according to V(t)=-1000+1000t-1
Selling An Asset Suppose the value of an asset changes with time according to V(t) = −1000 + 1000t − 10t 2

Selling An Asset v(t)=-1000+1000t-10t Maximum value occurs when v(t)=1000-20t=0 That is when t= 50
Selling An Asset V(t) = −1000 + 1000t − 10t 2 Maximum value occurs when V'(t) = 1000 − 20t = 0 That is, when t = 50

Selling An Asset The rate-of-return(回报率) in year t is the income earned by the asset in year t as a fraction of its value in year t E.g. if an asset valued at $1,000 earns $100 then its rate-of-return is 10%
