I want to maximize the expected return on an investment. To do this i have created some parameters which have an effect on the outcome, and if they are adjusted optimally they should make it possible for me maximize my expected return.
I throught I would be able to use solver to adjust these parameters, however while the solver function tells me that it has come to a result, it doesn't change the value of the parameters.
And this is weird as the values that I am currently using in the parameters are randomly chosen, and definitely aren't optimal. I can manually change the numbers of the parameters and they will change the the expected return.
I suspect that the problem may be due to the fact that there aren't nessarily one specific optimal solution to each parameter. There may be more than 1 value that is optimal. But I am not sure whether this is the actual problem, or even how I can fix this problem.
Any suggestions?
