a)
Summary Introduction
To determine: The annual savings percentage that maximizes the long-run average consumption level.
Non-linear programming (NLP):
Non-linear programming (NLP) is used in complex optimization problems where the objectives or constraints or sometimes both are non-linear functions of the decision variables. A model can be termed as non-linear for more than one reason.
b)
Summary Introduction
To use: The solver table to know the way the optimal solution depends on the annual depreciation rate.
