A company deposits a sum of money S0 in a fund earning 100 p% interest compounded monthly. The company also deposits a sum S0 in this fund at the end of each conversion period. a) Find the difference equation for this problem and its solution. b) Simplify the solution for the case that p / r << 1.

Problem 1. An investor deposits an amount P into an account on January 1st of each year, starting in Year 1. Interest is compounded quarterly, with interest payments made at the end of March, June, September, and December each year. The annual interest rate is r. Write down the amount in the account at the end of Year n. Find the amount in the account at the end of Year t, evaluating the sum you obtain. Problem 2. Find the solution of the following recurrence equation T(n) = T(n-1) + 12/(1-2^3), satisfying T(0) = 3.5. Verify if it is correct.

Consider an initial deposit of $ P $ dollars in an account with an annual interest rate $ r $, compounded monthly. At the end of each month, a withdrawal of $ W $ dollars will occur and the account will be depleted in $ t $ years. The amount of the initial deposit required is $ P = W\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{12}\right)^{-1} + W\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{12}\right)^{-2} + \cdots + W\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{12}\right)^{-12t} $ Show that the initial deposit is $ P = W\left(\dfrac{12}{r}\right)\left[1-\left(1 + \dfrac{r}{12}\right)^{-12t}\right] $.
