Excerpt from Interest and Bond Values
This little book is not to be regarded as a treatise on the Mathematical Theory of Interest - that theory which has been so ably expounded by Mr. King in The Theory of Finance and by Mr. Todhunter in the Text Book of the Insti tute of Actuaries, Part I. It is merely an explanation of the Interest Tables and Tables of Bond Values now in common use, and an attempt to instruct students concerning them.
While an elementary knowledge of Algebra is a powerful aid to the intelligent appreciation and use of such tables, and Algebra has not been excluded from the following pages, yet it is believed that nearly everything contained therein may be followed by anyone who will take the trouble to learn the meanings of the standard interest symbols.
Mainly written for the use of the author's own classes in the elementary mathematics of finance, it is hoped that the book may also be of value, not only to actuarial students but also to that increasing number of men who are finding it a business necessity to thoroughly understand the tables referred to.
