question

As scotch whiskey ages, its value increases. One dollar of scotch at year 0 is worth V(t)=exp2t−0.15tV(t) = exp{2\sqrt{t} - 0.15t} dollars at time t. If the interest rate is 5 percent, after how many years should a person sell scotch in order to maximize the PDV of this sale?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
As scotch whiskey ages, its value increases. One dollar of scotch at year 0 is worth V(t)=exp2√(t)−0.15t dollars at time t. If the interest rate is 5 percent, after how many years should a person sell scotch in order to maximize the PDV of this sale?
