The True Growth Rate and the Inflation Balancing Principle.

Thompson, Robert C.

American Mathematical Monthly, v90 n3 p207-10 Mar 1983

The demise of mathematics of finance as a subject is discussed and a resurgence is seen as possible, but the traditional instructional presentation is seen as in need of modernization. Financial mathematics is referred to as a beautiful subject when inflation is incorporated, provided that calculators are used in computations. (Author/MP)
