Time Value of Money
6.1 Time is money
- “Interest”
- “Interest rate”
6.2 Real and Nominal Interest Rates
nominal interest rate:
- the interest rate usually reported and not corrected for inflation.
real interest rates:
- The real interest rate at which the purchasing power of money remains constant.
Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate – Inflation rate - effective interest rate. In compound interest method calculation, the effective interest rate generated because the interest period is shorter than one year.
i = (1+ r/m) m – 1
i = real annual interest rate
r = nominal annual interest rate
m = number of compounding periods in a year
6.3 Interest Calculation
Naming Conventions in Interest Formulas:
- P - "Principal Amount": how much is the money worth right now? Also known as “present value” or “present worth”.
- F - "Final Amount": how much will the money be worth at a later time? Also known as “future value” or “future worth”.
- i - "Interest rate per period". Assumed to be annual unless stated otherwise.
- n - Number of interest periods between points in time.
- A - "Annuity": a stream of equal, recurring payments due at the end of each interest period.
I = P × n × i
F = P + I = P (1 + ni)
Single-Payment Compound-Amount (F/P):
F = P ( 1 + i )n
6.4 Equivalence
Two or more different cash-flow instances (cash-flow streams) are equivalent at a given interest rate, only when they equal the same amount of money at a common point in time.
