Concluding Remarks

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems ((LNE,volume 520))

Abstract

The preceding treatise has shown, that even though models of dynamic problems generally seem to be of uniform appearance, they do indeed originate in distinctly different underlying types of objectives: While Type A objectives concern only one value of interest at one certain point of time, Type B objectives aim at a value of a certain kind at every point of time in the planning horizon. One of the basic tasks of this work is to present a precise delimitation of these objective types as concerns content and formal appearance, and furthermore, to address methodological topics beyond the standard of discounting.
