Financial Modeling With Crystal Ball And Excel (with examples)

book cover This book is intended for analysts who wish to construct stochastic financial models, and anyone else interested in learning how to use Crystal Ball. Instructors with a practical bent may also find it useful as a supplement for courses in finance, management science, or industrial engineering.

The first six chapters of this book cover the features of Crystal Ball and OptQuest. Several examples are used to illustrate how these programs can be used to enhance deterministic Excel models for stochastic financial analysis and planning. The remaining seven chapters provide more detailed examples of how Crystal Ball and OptQuest can be used in financial risk analysis of investments in securities, derivatives, and real options.

The technical appendices provide details about the methods used by Crystal Ball in its algorithms, and a description of some methods of variance reduction that can be employed to increase the precision of your simulation estimates. All of the models described in the book are available on the accompanying CD-ROM, as is a link to a Web site from which a trial version of Crystal Ball may be downloaded.

Planet Earth Biography

Planet Earth Biography

English | 150:00 | 720x480 | PAL (25fps) | DivX | MP3 - 128kbps | 1.4 GB

Genere: Documentry

This landmark series uses specialist imaging and compelling narrative to tell the life story of our planet, how it works, and what makes it so special. Examining the great forces that shape the Earth - volcanoes, the ocean, the atmosphere and ice - the programme explores their central roles in our planet's story. How do these forces affect the Earth's landscape, its climate, and its history? CGI gives the audience a ringside seat at these great events, while the final episode brings together all the themes of the series and argues that Earth is an exceptionally rare kind of planet - giving us a special responsibility to look after our unique world. This is a series that shows the Earth in new and surprising ways. Extensive use of satellite imagery reveals new views of our planet, while timelapse filmed over many months brings the planet to life. Offering a balance between dramatic visuals and illuminating facts, this ground-breaking series makes global science truly compelling.

To demonstrate the stunning beauty and overwhelming power of the Earth, Dr. Iain Stewart climbs into the crater of an active volcano in Ethiopia, jets into the stratosphere, climbs the frozen crests of the Alps, races the tide at the Amazon basin, dives into underwater caverns in Mexico, and generally enjoys himself to no end. His infectious enthusiasm is hardly necessary, though; Earth: The Biography (formerly The Power of the Planet) is five episodes of phenomenal images and fascinating information about how our planet formed and the potent yet delicate balance of life.

Basic Algebra I, 2nd Edition

This book is by an expert algebraist who has rewritten his earlier introduction to algebra from the experience gained after 20 years as a Yale professor. It contains correct insightful proofs, carefully explained as clearly as possible without compromising their goal of reaching the bottom of each topic.

Other books say that one cannot square the circle with ruler and compass because it would require solving an algebraic equation with rational coefficients whose root is pi, and after all pi is a transcendental number. But Jacobson also proves that pi is a transcendental number, so as not to leave a logical gap. Naturally the burden on the student is somewhat higher than if he is merely told this fact without proof.

It is true that some other books include many more examples, and discuss them at extreme length, whereas Jacobson's book is less than 500 pages, hence cannot include as many words. But Jacobson's words are sometimes far better chosen, as he clearly understands the material at greater depth than other authors.

In his introduction to R modules, he discusses the most natural possible ring that acts on an abelian group: the ring of its endomorphisms. This is the true motivation behind the usefulness of R modules structures but is not even hinted at in most other books.

In his treatment of factorization in Noetherian domains, Jacobson carefully proves the existence of a single irredudible factor before proving existence of a complete factorization, thus avoiding perfectly a logical trap that some authors do not even notice.

In his discussion of the structure theory of finitely generated modules over a pid, he gives the concrete proof using diagonalization of matrices, that will actually be applied later to linear transformations, rather than some abstract existence proof that will be useless later, as many other authors do.

Principles and Techniques of Applied Mathematics

315 pages | 1999 | PDF | 6,8
Mb

You can learn every topic listed in this book using this book all by itself. It has the clearest introduction to these topics that I have seen. I read this book from start to finish, and it was a revelation every step of the way.

Summary: great discussion on delta function
Rating: 5

it's such a small book yet has the best discussion on delta function and spectral presentation i've seen.

it's strange that one reviewer mentions it's not for mathematician but it's a good engineering book for applications. My impression is just the opposite even it does not contain a lot of rigorous proofs.

I think for an average engineer who just wants to applications, this book is a poor choice, cause real-life data are almost always discrete and finite yet this book always use continuous functions as examples. but that is not what it is for. There are other engineering books better for these purposes.

This book is for anyone (physicist, applied mathematician or engineer) who has a passing knowledge of eigenfunction & linear operators, and who wants to know more in-depth underlying math.

How to Think About Algorithms

There are many algorithm texts that provide lots of well-polished code and proofs of correctness. This book is not one of them. Instead, this book presents insights, notations, and analogies to help the novice describe and think about algorithms like an expert. By looking at both the big picture and easy step-by-step methods for developing algorithms, the author helps students avoid the common pitfalls. He stresses paradigms such as loop invariants and recursion to unify a huge range of algorithms into a few meta-algorithms. Part of the goal is to teach the students to think abstractly. Without getting bogged with formal proofs, the book fosters a deeper understanding of how and why each algorithm works. These insights are presented in a slow and clear manner accessible to second- or third-year students of computer science, preparing them to find their own innovative ways to solve problems.

The Emergence of The Relationship Economy: The New Order of Things to Come

The convergence of technology that accelerates the power of relationships and facilitates dynamic communications– peer to peer and to entire communities–is revolutionary to say the least. The book examines the factors that are influencing the emergence of The Relationship Economy.

The book defines The Relationship Economy as: “The people and things we are connected with in our personal networks who or that distribute or consume our capital, which in turn influences our individual production outputs.” The book analyzes the factors that are influencing an emerging economy based on the sum of factors driving massive and significant changes to the way everyone will work, play, and live.

This emergence will have an especially profound effect on businesses and individuals. While individual factors are self-evident, the collective factors, taken as a whole, are the basis for individual conclusions for strategic opportunities that can be gained from the new economy.Download Here
