Tiivistelmä: | The problem investigated in the paper is how to choose a combination of investments and financing options from a finite set of possibly interrelated alternatives and simultaneously determine a temporal level of consumption in order that some utility functional is maximised over a given time horizon. Application of Calculus of Variations leads to consideration of the Euler-Lagrange equations combined with Kulm-Tucker conditions. The solution requires the maximisation of a Generalised Net Present Wealth measure in which the discount factor is formed from an integral of the Lagrangean multiplier function. |
