1 McGraw-Hill/Irwin Copyright 4- 2011 by the McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved. Time value of money A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow Why? Default risk Inflation Opportunity cost Discount rates help us value future cash flows today Basic Definitions Present Value (PV) The current value of future cash flows discounted at the appropriate discount rate Value at t=0 on a time line Future Value (FV) The amount an investment is worth after one or more periods. Later money on a time line 4- 3 Basic Definitions Interest rate (r) Discount rate Cost of capital Opportunity cost of capital Required return Terminology depends on usage 4- 4 Time Line of Cash Flows Tick marks at ends of periods Time 0 is today; Time 1 is the end of Period 1 0 1 2 3 CF1 CF2 CF3 r% CF0 +CF = Cash INFLOW -CF = Cash OUTFLOW PMT = Constant CF 4- 5 Time Line for a $100 Lump Sum due at the End of Year 2. 0 r% 1 2 Year 100 4- 6 Future Values: General Formula FV = PV(1 + r)t FV = future value PV = present value r = period interest rate, expressed as a decimal t = number of periods Future value interest factor = (1 + r)t Note: yx key on your calculator 4- 7 Future Values Example 1 Suppose you invest $100 for one year at 10% per year. What is the future value in one year? Interest = 100(.10) = 10 Value in one year = Principal + interest = 100 + 10 = 110 Future Value (FV) = 100(1 + .10) = 110 4- 8 Future Values Example 1 Suppose you leave the money in for another year. How much will you have two years from now? FV = 100(1.10)(1.10) = 100(1.10)2 = 121.00 4- 9 Effects of Compounding Simple interest Interest earned only on the original principal Compound interest Interest earned on principal and on interest received Interest on interest interest earned on reinvestment of previous interest payments 4-10 Effects of Compounding Consider the previous example FV w/simple interest = 100 + 10 + 10 = 120 FV w/compound interest =100(1.10)2 = 121.00 The extra 1.00 comes from the interest of .10(10) = 1.00 earned on the first interest payment 4-11 Texas Instruments BA-II Plus = future value One of these MUST be negative = present value = period interest rate (r) = number of periods 4-12 Texas Instruments BA-II Plus = period interest rate (r) must equal 1 for the to be the period rate ( = 1 = default on new BAII+) Interest is entered as a percent, not a decimal 5% interest = 5, not .05 = 0 for this chapter only!

Press to set the displayed choice. 4-16 Future Values Example 2 Suppose you invest the $100 from the previous example for 5 years. How much would you have? Formula Solution: FV =PV(1+r)t =100(1.10)5 =100(1.6105) =161.05 Keystrokes: 1.1 5 100 161.0510 4-17 Table 4.1 4-18 Figure 4.1 4-19 Texas Instruments BA-II Plus To calculate FV: 10% 5 years PV=$100 Key Entry Display 0.00 5 5.00 10 10.00 100 -100.00 0 0.00 161.05 4-20 Excel Spreadsheet Functions Excel TVM functions: =FV(rate,nper,pmt,pv) =PV(rate,nper,pmt,fv) =RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv) =NPER(rate,pmt,pv,fv) Use the formula icon (x) when you cant remember the exact formula 4-21 Future Values Example 3 Suppose you had a relative deposit $10 at 5.5% interest 200 years ago. How much would the investment be worth today? Formula Solution: FV = PV(1+r)t = 10(1.055)200 =10(44718.984) =447,189.84 CalculatorSolution 200 5.5 10 0 = 447,189.84 Excel Solution: =FV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,PV) =FV(0.055,200,0,-10) = 447189.84 NOTE: Rate = decimal 4-22 Future Value: General Growth Formula Suppose your company expects to increase unit sales of widgets by 15% per year for the next 5 years. If you currently sell 3 million widgets in one year, how many widgets do you expect to sell in 5 years? Formula Solution: FV =PV(1+r)t =3(1.15)5 =3(2.0114) =6.0341 million Calculator Solution 5 15 3 0 = -6.0341 Excel Solution: =FV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,PV) =FV(0.15,5,0,3) = -6.0341 4-23 Future Value: Important Relationship I For a given interest rate: The longer the time period, The higher the future value FV = PV(1 + r)t For a given r, as t increases, FV increases 4-24 Future Value Important Relationship II For a given time period: The higher the interest rate, The larger the future value FV = PV(1 + r)t For a given t, as r increases, FV increases 4-25 Figure 4.2 4-26 Quick Quiz: Part 1 What is the difference between simple interest and compound interest? (Slide 4.10) Suppose you have $500 to invest and you believe that you can earn 8% per year over the next 15 years. How much would you have at the end of 15 years using compound interest? How much would you have using simple interest? 4-27 Present Values The current value of future cash flows discounted at the appropriate discount rate Value at t=0 on a time line Answers the questions: How much do I have to invest today to have some amount in the future? What is the current value of an amount to be received in the future? 4-28 Present Values Present Value = the current value of an amount to be received in the future Why is it worth less than face value? Opportunity cost Risk & Uncertainty Discount Rate = (time, risk) 4-29 Time Line of Cash Flows Tick marks at ends of periods Time 0 is today; Time 1 is the end of Period 1 0 1 2 3 CF1 CF2 CF3 r% CF0 +CF = Cash INFLOW -CF = Cash OUTFLOW PMT = Constant CF 4-30 Present Values FV = PV(1 + r)t Rearrange to solve for PV PV = FV / (1+r)t PV = FV(1+r)-t Discounting = finding the present value of one or more future amounts. 4-31 Whats the PV of $100 due in 3 Years if r = 10%? Finding PVs is discounting, and its the reverse of compounding. 0 10% 1 2 PV = ? 3 100 Formula: PV = FV(1+r)-t = 100(1.10)-3 = $75.13 Calculator: 3 10 0 100 = -75.13 Excel: =PV(.10,3,0,100) = -75.13 4-32 Present Value: Example 1 Single Period Suppose you need $10,000 in one year for the down payment on a new car. If you can earn 7% annually, how much do you need to invest today? Formula Solution: PV =FV(1+r)-t =10,000(1.07)-1 =10,000/1.07 =9,345.79 Calculator Solution 1 7 0 10000 = -9345.79 Excel Solution: =PV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,FV) =PV(0.07,1,0,10000) = -9345.79 4-33 Present Values: Example 2 Multi-Periods You want to begin saving for your daughters college education and you estimate that she will need $150,000 in 17 years. If you feel confident that you can earn 8% per year, how much do you need to invest today? Formula Solution: PV =FV(1+r)-t =150,000(1.08)-17 =150,000/(1.08)17 =-40,540.34 Calculator Solution: 17 8 0 150000 = -40540.34 Excel =PV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,FV) =PV(0.08,17,0,150000) Solution: = -40540.34 4-34 Present Values: Example 3 Multi-Periods Your parents set up a trust fund for you 10 years ago that is now worth $19,671.51. If the fund earned 7% per year, how much did your parents invest? Formula Solution: PV =FV(1+r)-t =19,671.51(1.07)-10 =19.671.51/(1.07)10 =-10,000 Calculator Solution: 10 7 0 19671.51 = -10000 Excel Solution: =PV(Rate,Nper,Pmt,FV) =PV(0.07,10,0,19671.51) = -10000 4-35 Present Value: Important Relationship I For a given interest rate: The longer the time period, The lower the present value FV PV = t (1 + r ) For a given r, as t increases, PV decreases 4-36 Present Value: Important Relationship I What is the present value of $500 to be received in 5 years? 10 years? The discount rate is 10% 0 -310.46 -192.77 PV? r=10% 5 10 500 PV? 500 5 yrs: PV = 500/(1.10)5 = -310.46 (1.10)5 =1.6105 10 yrs: PV = 500/(1.10)10= -192.77 (1.10)10 = 2.5937 4-37 Present Value Important Relationship II For a given time period: The higher the interest rate, The smaller the present value FV PV = t (1 + r ) For a given t, as r increases, PV decreases 4-38 Present Value: Important Relationship II What is the present value of $500 received in 5 years if the interest rate is 10%? 15%? Rate = 10% Calculator Solution: 5 10 0 500 = -310.46 Rate = 15% Calculator Solution: 5 15 0 500 = -248.59 4-39 Figure 4.3 4-40 Quick Quiz: Part 2 What is the relationship between present value and future value? Suppose you need $15,000 in 3 years. If you can earn 6% annually, how much do you need to invest today? If you could invest the money at 8%, would you have to invest more or less than at 6%? How much? 4-41 The Basic PV Equation - Refresher PV = FV / (1 + r)t There are four parts to this equation PV, FV, r and t Know any three, solve for the fourth Be sure and remember the sign convention +CF = Cash INFLOW -CF = Cash OUTFLOW 4-42 Discount Rate To find the implied interest rate, rearrange the basic PV equation and solve for r: FV = PV(1 + r)t r = (FV / PV)1/t 1 If using formulas with a calculator, make use of both the yx and the 1/x keys 4-43 Discount Rate Example 1 You are looking at an investment that will pay $1200 in 5 years if you invest $1000 today. What is the implied rate of interest? Formula: r = (1200 / 1000)1/5 1 = .03714 = 3.714% Calculator the sign convention matters!!! 5 1000 (you pay $1,000 today) 0 1200 (you receive $1,200 in 5 years) = 3.714% Excel: =RATE(5,0,-1000,1200) = 0.03714 4-44 Discount Rate Example 2 Suppose you are offered an investment that will allow you to double your money in 6 years. You have $10,000 to invest. What is the implied rate of interest? 6 10000 0 20000 = 12.25% Excel: =RATE(6,0,-10000,20000) = 0.1225 4-45 Discount Rate Example 3 Suppose you have a 1-year old son and you want to provide $75,000 in 17 years towards his college education. You currently have $5,000 to invest. What interest rate must you earn to have the $75,000 when you need it? Calculator: 17 ;5000 ;0 ; 75000 = 17.27% Excel: =RATE(17,0,-5000,75000) = 0.1727 4-46 Quick Quiz: Part 3 What are some situations in which you might want to compute the implied interest rate? Suppose you are offered the following investment choices: You can invest $500 today and receive $600 in 5 years. The investment is considered low risk. You can invest the $500 in a bank account paying 4% annually. What is the implied interest rate for the first choice and which investment should you choose? 4-47 Finding the Number of Periods Start with basic equation and solve for t: FV = PV(1 + r)t FV ln PV t= ln(1 + r ) Calculator: Excel: =NPER(Rate, Pmt, PV, FV) 4-48 Number of Periods Example You want to purchase a new car and you are willing to pay $20,000. If you can invest at 10% per year and you currently have $15,000, how long will it be before you have enough money to pay cash for the car? Calculator Solution: 10 ; 15000 ;20000 ; = 3.02 years Excel: =NPER(0.10,0,-15000,20000)= 3.02 4-49 Number of Periods Example FV ln PV t= ln(1 + r ) Formula Solution: FV/PV = 20,000/15,000 = 1.333 ln(1.333) = 0.2877 ln(1.10) = 0.0953 t = 0.2877/0.0953 = 3.0189 4-50 Quick Quiz: Part 4 When might you want to compute the number of periods? Suppose you want to buy some new furniture for your family room. You currently have $500 and the furniture you want costs $600. If you can earn 6%, how long will you have to wait if you dont add any additional money? 4-51 Table 4.4 4-52 Quick Quiz 1 Solution Invest $500 at 8% per year over 15 years. How much would you have at the end of 15 years using compound interest? 15 8 500 0 1586.08 500(1.08)15 = 1586.08 =FV(.08, 15, 0, -500) How much would you have using simple interest? 500 + 15(500)(.08) = 1,100 Return to Quiz 4-53 Quick Quiz 2 Solution You need $15,000 in 3 years. You can earn 6% annually, how much do you need to invest today? 3 6 15000 0 -12594.29 PV= 15000/(1.06)3 = 15000/(1.191016) = = 15000 x 0.83962) = 12594.29 =PV(.06, 3, 0, 15000) Return to Quiz 4-54 Quick Quiz 2 Solution You need $15,000 in 3 years. If you could invest the money at 8%, would you have to invest more or less than at 6%? How much? 3 15000 0 -11907.48 PV= 15000/(1.08)3 = 15000/(1.125971) = 15000 x (0.79383) = 11907.48 =PV(.08, 3, 0, 15000) Difference = $686.81 Return to Quiz 4-55 Quick Quiz 3 Solution Investment choices: Invest $500 today and receive $600 in 5 years. The investment is considered low risk. Invest the $500 in a bank account paying 4% annually. What is the implied interest rate for the first choice and which investment should you choose? 5 500 0 600 3.714% r = (600/500)1/5 - 1 = 3.714% =RATE(5, 0, -500, 600) The bank account pays a higher rate. Return to Quiz 4-56 Quick Quiz 4 Solution Suppose you want to buy some new furniture for Your family room. You currently have $500 and the furniture you want costs $600. If you can earn 6%, how long will you have to wait if you dont add any additional money? 6 500 0 600 3.13 years t = ln(600/500) / ln(1.06) = 3.13 years =NPER(.06, 0, -500, 600) Return to Quiz 4-57 Practice Problems Ch. 4 1. Elaine has just received an insurance settlement of $25,000. She wants to save this money until her daughter goes to college.
