Summarize: Present Value/ Future
Value/ Compounding
SOLVE: Suppose you are depositing an
amount today in an account that earns
5% interest, compounded annually. If
your goal is to have $5,000 in the
account at the end of six years, how
much must you deposit in the account
today?
Solution
The following information is given:
• future value = $5,000
• interest rate = 5%
• number of periods = 6
• We want to solve for the present
value.
• present value =
future value / (1 + interest rate)number of periods
PV = FV/ (1 + r)t or n
PV = $5,000 / (1 + 0.05)6
PV = $5,000 / (1.3401)
PV = $3,731
If the interest rate is 7%. What
is the present value of $150 to
be received in 10years.
A company has an investment project that
would cost $10million today and yield a
payoff of $15million in 4 years.
a. Should the firm undertake the
project if the interest rate is 11%?
10%? 9%? 8%?
b. Can you figure out the exact cutoff
for the interest rate between
profitability and nonprofitability.
• Present value: refers to the amount
of money today that would be
needed to produce, using prevailing
interest rates, a given future amount
of money.
• The concept of present value
demonstrates the following:
• Receiving a given sum of money in the
present is preferred to receiving the
same sun in the future.
• In order to compare values at different
points in time, compare their present
values.
• Firms undertake investment projects if
the present value of the project exceeds
the cost.
• If r is the interest rate, then an
amount X to be received in N or T
years has present value of:
X/(1 + r)N
• Future Value
–The amount of money in the future
that an amount of money today
will yield, given prevailing interest
rates, is called the future value.
• Money is the set of assets in an
economy that people regularly
use to buy goods and services

c. A plastic credit card
• What characteristics of an asset

it)
• 2. Recognized easily as money(so
people can perform transactions

• 3. Divisible (make change)
• 4. Difficult to counterfeit (can’t print

• The quantity of money circulating in
the United States is sometimes called
the money stock.
• Included in the measure of the
money supply are currency, demand
deposits, and other monetary assets.
Discuss the conceptual definition of
money. Keep in mind, the complexity
of the real world and our rapid
evolving financial system prevent
agreement on a single measure of
money.
• Define and measure the money
supply into three definitions:
–Label them M1, M2 and M3
Currency(coins and paper)
plus Checkable deposits = M1
Savings deposits, including money
market deposits accounts, plus small
time deposits, plus money market
mutual fund balances equals = M2
Plus large time deposits = M3
