Problem 6 is a stochastic version of F.P. Ramsey’s classical control problem from 1928. In Chapter X we formulate the general stochastic control prob-lem in terms of stochastic difierential equations, and we apply the results of Chapters VII and VIII to show that the problem can be reduced to solving
