- Vijayarrow_forward3. A fund grows by the force of interest 8 (t) = k max (t, 1 t) for t > 0, and where k > 0. A deposit of 1000 is made at time t = 0.25, and a withdrawal of 500 is made at time t 0.75. At time t 1, the fund has a balance of 750. Find the amount of interest earned over the interval (0.25,0.50). This is the amount of interest earned in the second quarter.arrow_forwardWhat are the implications of these calculations? In other words, based on each of the calculations, and being mindful of the need to balance portfolio risk with return, would you recommend that the company pursue the investment? Why or why not? Be sure to substantiate claims.arrow_forward
