We construct finite horizon approximates that yield upper and lower estimates and whose optimal solutions converge to long-term optimal trajectories. The results extend those of [3] from the deterministic case to the stochastic.</mods:abstract><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8601">1986</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Springer Berlin Heidelberg</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Book Section</mods:genre></mods:mods>
