Mathematics of Finance is a comprehensive book written by Henry Lewis Rietz in 1921. The book covers the fundamental principles of mathematics and their application in the field of finance. It provides a detailed explanation of various mathematical concepts and their relevance in financial calculations.The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a specific topic. The first chapter introduces the basic concepts of arithmetic, algebra, and geometry, which are necessary for understanding financial calculations. The subsequent chapters cover topics such as interest, annuities, bonds, stocks, and investment analysis.The book also includes numerous examples and exercises that help readers understand the concepts and apply them in real-world scenarios. The author has used a simple and straightforward language, making it easy for readers to follow and comprehend the content.Overall, Mathematics of Finance is a valuable resource for students, professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the mathematical principles that underlie financial calculations. The book provides a solid foundation for further study in the field of finance and is a must-read for anyone looking to improve their financial literacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

It is the main purpose of this book to present a teachable elementary course in the application of mathematics to a broad class of financial problems. The material for the book has been obtained from many sources and tested in the teaching of such courses at three large universities. Experience has shown that the material is especially adapted to the needs of the students in schools and colleges of commerce and business administration, although general liberal arts and engineering students also find the course of much value. The man with a liberal business education should surely be thoroughly and accurately trained in the operation of interest in relation to finance. This course is designed to supply such training. In particular, this book treats of the relation of interest to the amortization of debts, to the creation of sinking funds, to the treatment of depreciation, to the valuation of bonds, to the accumulation of funds in building and loan associations, and to the elements of life insurance. Three chapters are devoted to an introduction to the elements of the mathematics of insurance. This is not a technical actuarial treatment of insurance, but simply a sufficient introduction to insurance so that the general business man who studies the book may obtain proper quantitive knowledge about the first principles of life insurance; and, as a student, may come to appreciate the beautiful system of long time finance involved in legal reserve life insurance. For the study of the book, no mathematical preparation, except that usually included in the high school course, is absolutely necessary; but courses in freshman and even in sophomore college mathematics will be found very useful, especially if only a short time is devoted to the work on this book. The plan of the book is such as to afford much elasticity in the time required to cover the work with a class
