Document Summary

Timeline: an important tool used in time value analysis; it is a graphical representation used to show the timing of cash flows. Future value (fv): the amount to which a cash flow or series of cash flows will grow over a given period of time when compounded at a given interest rate. Present value (pv): the value today of a future cash flow or series of cash flows. today is worth more than a dollar in the future because money has time value. Simple interest: occurs when interest is not earned on interest. Compounding: the arithmetic process of determining the final value of a cash flow or series of cash flows when compound interest is applied. Compound interest: occurs when interest is earned on prior periods" interest. Future value: you plan to deposit in a bank that pays a 5% interest each year.
