Expert Solution
Step 1

The concept of money's time worth indicates that any sum of money is worth more currently than what it will be in the upcoming time. This is because of the fact that money can be invested today and grown. The current value of any sum indicates its present value and any accumulated value is regarded as the future value. A cash flow stream indicates a series of future cash flows expected at different durations. The sum of each cash flow's present value indicates the stream's current worth.
