Equations {eq}`eq:Euler1` assert that price paid to purchase the asset at time $t$ equals the payout $d_t$ plus the price at time $t+1$ multiplied by a time discount factor $\delta$.
Discounting tomorrow's price by multiplying it by $\delta$ accounts for the ``value of waiting one period''.

A system of equations like {eq}`eq:Euler1` is an example of a linear **difference equation**.
