Textbook Question
Chapter 10.3, Problem 1MS
Simple interest (H). Suppose you deposit $500 into a savings account that earns 2% simple interest per year (simple interest means that there is no compounding). After one year, you close out the account and withdraw all the money. How much money would you have? How would you react if the bank charged you an $11 processing fee for that transaction?

The purpose of this problem is to solve the Black-Scholes PDE with analytical techniques,
which will lead us back to the Black-Scholes formula. The technique is very similar to the
one used with the Feynman-Kac formula back in MATH 467.
Let's consider the PDE given by

(x-K)+. The solution f(t, x) corresponds to the price
of a call option (given the initial condition) at time t if the stock price is x.
(a) The first two things that prevent us from solving this PDE directly are
(i) the fact that we have a terminal condition, instead of an initial condition;
(ii) the terms in front of the derivatives are not constant.
To address these, we use the transformation g(t, x) = ƒ(T − t,e³), equivalent to
f(t, x) = g(T-t, log(x)). Under this condition, determine the PDE and the initial
condition satisfied by g.
(b) Now, the PDE obtained in (a) should have an initial condition and constant coeffi-
cients, but it still…

The runner continues training as usual and tracks how many kilometers each shoe lasts before showing significant wear (e.g., loss of cushioning, outsole damage). Since both shoes experience the same runner, terrain, and conditions, any lifespan difference can be attributed to the shoe brand rather than external factors.
