Transcribed Image Text:APPENDIX C, TIME VALUE OF MONEY (“TVM") (end of
text, pages C-1 to C-13)
"A dollar today is worth more than a dollar in the future."
Assumptions:
1. The dollar is invested today
2. The dollar is earning a positive return
» 41+ interest
FV $1
Simple interest: P x R x T
Compound interest
-Compounding (Future Value “FV")
-Discounting (Present Value "PV"). In Accounting we record
long term assets and long-term liabilities at their present value
(cash equivalent amount); therefore, we mostly use PRESENT
VALUE concepts.
Two types of CASH FLOWS
ANNUITY–very specific–it is the same dollar amount that
occurs the same time each period.
SINGLE SUM– A single sum can occur at any time at any
amount. It is possible to have multiple single sum cash flows in
an investment; an amount that does not occur at the same time
each period.
A cash flow is either an annuity OR a single sum, it cannot
be both.

Transcribed Image Text:PV and FV Tables (available in Camvas) or use the BAII Plus Financial Calculator)
Future Value of a Single Amount (FV$1) Factor = (1+j"
Where (is the interest rate and n is the number of compounding periods.
Present Value of a Single Amount (PV$1) Factor= 1/(1+j the PV$1 Is the reciprocal of the FV$1
Future Value of an Ordinary Annulty (FVA) Factor= (FV$1-1)/1
Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity (PVA) Factor=1-PV$1)/1
Interest rates are stated in annual terms (one year, 12 months, 365 days...sometimes 360 days)
If compounding occurs more than once a year, the interest rate į needs to be divided (RxT) to
reflect the number of compounding periods in a year. And "n" needs to reflect the total number
of compounding periods over the life of the investment. For example:
An investment pays 12% interest annually for 5 years:
An investment pays 12% interest semiannually for 5 years: (6%, 10n) interest is cut in half,
(12%, 5n)
compounding periods are doubled.
(3%, 20n) interest is cut in fourth,
compounding periods are quadrupled.
(1%, 60n) interest is cut in 12ths,
compounding periods multiplied by 12.
An investment pays 12% interest quarterly for 5 years:
An investment pays 12% interest monthly for 5 years:
IDENTIFY (4 of the 5 variables, solve for the 5th):
number of compounding periods over the life of the investment/borrowing
interest rate (affected by compounding periods) earned on investment
a single sum (the amount today)
an annuity (equal cash flows that occur at the same time each period)
a single sum (the amount in the future)
PV
PMT
FV
Using the factor tables the equation to use is:
Cash flow x factor = VALUE
Where:
Cash flow is either a single sum (PV or FV) or the payment (PMT)
Factor is based on the %, n, single sum or annuity, PV or FV
Value is dependent on the factor (PV or FV) used
If a present value FACTOR is used, the VALUE will be the present value. If a future value
FACTOR is used, the VALUE will be the Future value.
For BAII Plus Financial Calculator:
Set P/Y to 1 by pressing the 2ND key and then the (1/Y) key. Type in 1 and press enter. Then
press the 2ND key and then the CPT key.
Following are the keys to use for Time Value of Money on the BAlIl Plus Financial Calculator
N= number of compounding periods
I/Y = interest rate
PV = present value
To quit/clear, press 2ND then CPT and then 2ND then FV. (Note: turning off the calculator will
not clear the TVM items).
PMT = annuity cash flow (payment)
FV = Future Value
CPT = compute key
