Document Summary

Time value of money: now is not equal to at some point in the future. If want to calculate total cash, must move all cash to equivalent amounts at one point in time before adding: difference in equivalent values is interest, gain interest and value as move forward in time. Interest not calculated on prior interest accrued/earned: mainly used for (some) loan calculation. Interest is calculated on principle and prior interest accrued/earned: used more generally than simple interest. A second point of view: pv= fv[1/(1+r/m)^txm, where 1/(1+r/m)^txm is the present value interest factor, pvif(r,t) Summary of pv variable relationships: as t increases, pv decreases, as r increases, pv decreases, as m increases, pv decreases. Determining the discount rate: start with the basic time value of money equation and rearrange to solve for r, fv= pv(1+r)^t r= (fv/pv)^1/t - 1, or, you can use a financial calculator to solve for r(i/y)
