Time Value of Money
Time Value of Money
The relationship between present value and future value of money:
A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow.
Financial Mathematice 6
Basic Definitions
Present value todays money on a time line.
Future value money in later periods on a time line.
Interest rate exchange rate between earlier money and later
money.

Cash Flows over a Time Line

useful step.

are done with interest rate (r). Positive cash inflow

Future Values: General Formula
FV
PV
(1 r ) n This is the relationship
where between PV and FV,
FV = future value
PV = present value
n = number of periods
Examples:
What is the APR if the monthly rate is 0.5%?
0.5% 12 = 6%
0.5% 2 = 1%

NPV of an Investment
Suppose an investment (or a project) can be acquired now
(time 0) at price or cost P0 > 0, which can produce non-
negative cash flows C1, ..., Cn at future times 1, , n.
The appropriate discount (or return, interest) rate is r (per period).
Then the net present value (NPV) of the investment is the
present value of its future cash flows C1, ..., Cn minus its
initial price or cost: NPV = k=1~n Ck/(1+r)k P0.
If NPV is positive, you should make the investment (with an initial cash
amount P0 to receive the future cash flows of C1, ..., Cn).
In the previous Example, if you can acquire the investment at a
lower price, say $4,500, you should do it since it has a
positive NPV of 4,815.92 4,500 = $815.92.

Simplifications
Applying the PV equation all the time could be
troublesome. We want to find some simplifications.
When the cash flows follow certain patterns, we
may be able to use formulas to calculate the
present values.

Proof of Perpetuity Formula
Sum of geometric series (of n terms):
Sumn = a + aq + aq2 + + aqn-1 = a(1 qn)/(1 q).
If | q | < 1, then qn 0 when n .
So sum of infinite geometric series: Sum = a/(1 q).
For our perpetuity,
a = C/(1 + r) and q = 1/(1 + r) < 1.
So: PV0 = C/(1 + r) + C/(1 + r)2 + C/(1 + r)3 +
= a + aq + aq2 +
= a/(1 q) = [C/(1 + r)][1 1/(1 + r)] = C/r.

Ordinary Annuity Another Example
Your mother bought an annuity from Rock Solid Insurance
Company for $200,000 when she retired. In exchange for the
$200,000, Rock Solid will pay her $25,000 per year until she
dies. The interest rate is 5%. How long must she live after she
retired to get more in value than what she paid in?
200,000 < PV of annuity = 25,000[1 1/(1 + 5%)n] / 5%.

Annuity Due
An annuity due is a stream of constant cash flows, paid at the
beginning of each period, that lasts for a fixed number of periods.
(for ordinary annuity, cash flows come at the end of periods.)

Annuity Due Example
You want to buy a new sports car from Muscle Motors for
$65,000. The contract is in the form of a 48-month annuity due
at a 6.45% APR. What will your monthly payment be?
PV-1 = CAr,n = C[1 1/(1 + r)n]/r.
PV0 = PV-1 (1 + r) = CAr,n (1 + r) = 65,000.
C = 65,000 / [Ar,n (1 + r)].
r = 6.45% / 12 = 0.005375, n = 48,
Ar,n = (1 1/1.00537548)/0.005375 = 42.2085204.
C = 65,000/(42.20852041.005375)

Exercise Question 1
Mark has been working on an advanced technology in laser
eyes surgery. His technology will be available in the near term.
He anticipates his first annual cash flow from the technology
to be $215,000, received two years from today. Subsequent
annual cash flows will grow at 4% in perpetuity.
What is the present value of the technology if the discount rate
is 10%?
Solution:
PV1 = C/(r g) = 215,000/(10% 4%) = 3,583,333.33.
PV0 = PV1 /(1 + r) = 3,583,333.33/(1 + 10%) = 3,257,575.76.

Exercise Question 2
Your job pays you only once a year for all the work you did
over the previous 12 months.
Today, December 31, you just received your salary of $60,000,
for the past year, and you plan to spend all of it.
However, you want to start saving for retirement beginning
next year.
You have decided that one year from today you will begin
depositing 5% of your annual salary in a retirement account
that will earn 9% per year.
Your salary will increase at 4% per year throughout your
career.
How much money will you have on the date of your retirement
40 years from today?
Financial Mathematice 33
Exercise Question 2: Solution
Since your salary grows at 4% per year, your salary next year
will be: $60,000 (1 + 0.04) = $62,400.
This means your first deposit into the account next year will be:
$62,400(0.05) = $3,120.
Since your salary grows at 4% annually, you deposit will also
grow at 4% annually. We can use the present value formula of a
growing annuity to find the value of your deposits today:
C 1 g

Now, we can find the future value of this lump sum in 40 years:
FV40 = PV0 (1 + r)40 = $52,861.98(1.09)40 = $1,660,364.12.

Exercise Question 3: Buying a House
You are ready to buy a house and you have $20,000 for a
down (first) payment and closing (administrative) costs.
Closing costs are estimated to be 4% of the loan value.
You have an annual salary of $36,000 and the bank is willing to
allow your monthly mortgage payment to be equal to 28% of your
monthly income.
The interest rate on the loan is 6% per year with monthly
compounding (0.5% per month) for a 30-year fixed rate loan.
How much money will the bank loan you per month?
How much can you offer for the house?
Financial Mathematice 35
Exercise Question 3: Solution
Bank loan
Monthly income = 36,000 / 12 = $3,000
Maximum monthly mortgage payment = 0.28(3,000) = $840
Loan value = present value of all (360) mortgage payments:
PV0 = 840[1 1/1.005360] / 0.005 = $140,105
Total Price
1. Closing costs = 0.04(140,105) = $5,604
2. Down payment = 20,000 5,604 = $14,396
3. Total (House) Price = 140,105 + 14,396 = $154,501
