Q

The Future Value of a Single Amount is

and what is the formula for the future value of a singe amount?

A

The Future Value of a Single Amount is the amount of money that a dollar will grow to at some point in the future

FV = PV *(1+i)^n

i=interest rate per per, so if you have an interest rate of 10 percent and its monthly it would be divided by 10. so 1% +1. And n is number of compouning periods, so periods * years

Q

Present value of a single sum

and formula

A

PV = FV/ (1+i)^n
OR PV = FV* (1 / (1+i)^n)
(1 / (1+i)^n) = present value factor

What if we know the future value but want to know what something is worth today?
Saving: Assume you plan to

Assume you plan to buy a new car in 5 years and you think it will cost $20,000 at that time.

What amount must you invest today in order to accumulate $20,000 in 5 years, if you can earn 8% interest compounded annually?

Q

Present Value of an Annuity
Example: Saving for Retirement:
You wish to withdraw $10,000 at the end of each of the next 4 years from a bank account that pays 10% interest compounded annually.
How much do you need to invest today to meet this goal?

A

We could calculate PV of each future payment individually:
2. PV Factor (i = 10%, n=2) 3. PV Factor (i = 10%, n=3) 4. PV Factor (i = 10%, n=4)
$10,000 * 0.8264 = $8,264 $10,000 * 0.7513 = $7,513 $10,000 * 0.6830 = $6,830
Instead, we’ll use the Present Value of Ordinary Annuity of $1 table:
Slide 20 of 25
$10,000 × 3.1699 (i = 10%, n = 4) = $31,699

Q

Future Value of an Annuity
Example:
We plan to invest $2,500 at the end of each of the next 3 years.
We can earn 8%, compounded interest annually on all invested funds. What will be the fund balance at the end of 3 years?

A

$2,500 × 3.2464 (i = 8%, n = 3) = $8,116
