[All Steps] Cash flow to bank account balance. The T -vector c represents the cash flow for an interest bearing bank account over T time periods. Positive values


Question: Cash flow to bank account balance. The \(T\) -vector \(c\) represents the cash flow for an interest bearing bank account over \(T\) time periods. Positive values of \(c\) indicate a deposit, and negative values indicate a withdrawal. The \(T\) -vector \(b\) denotes the bank account balance in the \(T\) periods. We have \(b_{1}=c_{1}\) (the initial deposit or withdrawal) and

\[b_{t}=(1+r) b_{t-1}+c_{t}, \quad t=2, \ldots, T\]

where \(r>0\) is the (per-period) interest rate. (The first term is the previous balance plus the interest, and the second term is the deposit or withdrawal.)

Find the \(T \times T\) matrix \(A\) for which \(b=A c\). That is, the matrix \(A\) maps a cash flow sequence into a bank account balance sequence. Your description must make clear what all entries of \(A\) are.
