Chapter 9
Time Value of Money
CHAPTER PREVIEW
Money can increase or grow over time if we can save or invest it and we are paid a “return” on
the use of our money by others. We begin the chapter with examples of simple interest being
earned on a savings amount or investment. We then turn our attention to compounding. Most
individuals have experienced compounding by watching a savings account grow or increase over
time when interest is reinvested. Then, we follow with a discussion of discounting which can be
viewed as being the opposite of compounding. When saving or investing involves equal periodic
payments (e.g., quarterly) we call this an “annuity.” Both the future and present values of
annuities are covered in the chapter. In some instances, it is important to be able to find or solve
for the “interest rate” being earned on an investment. Likewise, you might find it important to
know how long it will take to accumulate enough savings to pay for a vacation trip. These topics
are also covered in the chapter.
Other topics covered include how to handle more frequent than annual compounding or
discounting intervals and the comparison of the annual percentage rate (APR) and the effective
annual rate (EAR). “Annuity due” problems are covered in Learning Extension 9. Solutions to
problems are presented through equations and tables that the student should be able to grasp
easily.

LECTURE NOTES
I. BASIC CONCEPTS
It is important to understand the time value of money (i.e., the mathematics of finance
whereby interest is earned over time by saving or investing money) concept before trying to

Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
understand the pricing and valuation of bonds, stocks, and real asset investments. Simple
interest is interest earned only on the principal of the initial investment.
(Use Discussion Questions 1 and 2 here.)

Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
The instructor will find it useful to cover the process of determining annual (or other
periods such as monthly) payments for annuities, since this concept will be useful for
understanding the amortization of bank term loans and home mortgage loans.

what rate of interest you could earn if you had money to invest now. Let’s assume an
interest (discount) rate of 10 percent. Dividing $110 by 1.10 gives a current or discounted
price of $100.
6. Briefly explain how present values and future values are related.
The process of finding present values and future values both involve using compound
interest rates. If we know the future value of an investment, we can find its present value
and vice versa.
7. Describe the process for solving for the interest rate in present and future value problems.
If we know the present value, future value, and the time period for an investment, we can
solve for the compound interest rate that would be earned on an investment. The calculation
process is shown in the chapter.
8. Describe the process for solving for the time period in present and future value problems.
If we know the present value, future value, and the compound interest rate, we can solve for
the time period that would be required to earn the compound interest rate on an investment.
The calculation process is shown in the chapter.
9. How can the Rule of 72 be used to determine how long it will take for an investment to
double in value?
The Rule of 72 method is applied by dividing the interest rate into the number 72 to
determine the number of years it will take for an investment to double in value. The reader
should be aware that at very low or very high interest rates, the Rule of 72 does not
approximate the compounding process as well and thus a larger estimation error occurs in
terms of the time required for an investment to double in value.
10. What is an ordinary annuity?
An annuity is a cash flow stream that is constant or level in each time period. An ordinary
annuity exists when the cash flows occur at the end of each time period.
11. Briefly describe how to solve for the interest rate or the time period in annuity problems.
If we know the future value (or present value), the annuity payment, and the time period for
the annuity, we can solve for the compound interest rate that makes the future value (or
present value) equal to the stream of annuity payments. The calculation process is illustrated
in the chapter.
In a similar fashion, if we know the future value (or present value), the annuity payment,
and the compound interest rate for the annuity, we can solve for the time it will take for the
future value (or present value) to equal the stream of annuity payments. The calculation
process is illustrated in the chapter.
12. Describe the process for determining the size of a constant periodic payment that is
necessary to fully amortize a loan.
The constant periodic payment that is necessary to fully amortize a loan is determined by
dividing the present value of an annuity by the appropriate present value interest factor for
an annuity. For example, the annual payment necessary to fully amortize a $2,487 loan at 10
9-6
Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
percent for 3 years would be $1,000 (i.e., $2,487/2.487), where the PVIFA at 10 percent for
3 years is 2.487 (see Table 9.4). A loan amortization schedule is shown in Table 9.5.
13. Describe what we mean by compounding or discounting more often than annually.
Compounding (or discounting) may occur more frequently than annually. For example, to
compound twice a year, the interest rate per period is reduced in half and the number of
periods over which the compounding takes place is doubled. More frequent compounding
causes the future value to increase more than if annual compounding had taken place. The
calculation process is illustrated in the chapter.
14. What is usury, and how does it relate to the cost of consumer credit?
Usury is the act of lending money at an excessively high interest rate. Lenders deserve to
earn a fair rate of return to compensate them for their time and the risk that the borrower
will not repay the interest and/or principal on time or in full. However, because of the
existence of unethical lenders, various laws have made usury illegal.
15. Explain the difference between the annual percentage rate and the effective annual rate.
The annual percentage rate (APR) is determined by multiplying the interest rate charged per
period by the number of periods in a year. The effective annual rate (EAR) measures the true
interest rate when compounding occurs more frequently than once a year. The process for
converting from the APR to the EAR (and vice versa) is illustrated in the chapter.

3. Assume that your partner and you are in the consumer lending business. A customer,
talking with your partner, is discussing the possibility of obtaining a $10,000 loan for three
months. The potential borrower seems distressed and says he needs the loan by tomorrow or
several of his relatively new appliances will be repossessed by the manufacturers. You
overhear your partner saying that that in order to process the loan within one day there will
be a $1,000 processing fee so that $11,000 in principal will have to be repaid in order to
have $10,000 to spend now. Furthermore, because the money is needed now and is for only
three months the interest charge will be 6 percent per month. What would you do?
Usury is the act of lending money at an excessively high interest rate. Good ethical
behavior is consistent with treating borrowers honestly and fairly. As a lender, you are
entitled to earn a fair rate of return on the money you lend. That is, you deserve to earn a
rate of return that will compensate you for your time and the risk that the borrower may not
repay the interest and/or principal on time or in full. However, a $1,000 processing fee on a
$10,000 loan and an interest charge of 6 percent per month seems exorbitant.
1. Find the future value one year from now of a $7,000 investment at a 3 percent annual compound
interest rate. Also calculate the future value if the investment is made for two years.
2. Find the future value of $10,000 invested now after five years if the annual interest rate is 8
percent.
9-8
Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
a. What would be the future value if the interest rate is a simple interest rate?
b. What would be the future value if the interest rate is a compound interest rate?
FV = $10,000(1.08)5
FV = $10,000(1.469) = $14,690
3. Determine the future values if $5,000 is invested in each of the following situations:
a. 5 percent for ten years
$5,000(1.629) = $8,145
b. 7 percent for seven years
$5,000(1.606) = $8,030
c. 9 percent for four years
$5,000(1.412) = $7,060
4. You are planning to invest $2,500 today for three years at a nominal interest rate of 9
percent with annual compounding.
$2,500(1.295) = $3,237.50
b. Now assume that inflation is expected to be 3 percent per year over the same three-year
period. What would be the investment’s future value in terms of purchasing power?
c. What would be the investment’s future value in terms of purchasing power if inflation
occurs at a 9 percent annual rate?

6. Determine the present values if $5,000 is received in the future (i.e., at the end of each
indicated time period) in each of the following situations:
$5,000(.614) = $3,070
$5,000(.623) = $3,115
$5,000(.708) = $3,540
7. Determine the present value if $15,000 is to be received at the end of eight years and the
discount rate is 9 percent. How would your answer change if you had to wait six years to
receive the $15,000?
$15,000 received at end of 8 years:
$15,000(.502) = $7,530
$15,000 received at end of 6 years:
$15,000(.596) = $8,940
8. Determine the future value at the end of two years of an investment of $3,000 made now and
an additional $3,000 made one year from now if the compound annual interest rate is 4
percent.
FV = $3,000[(1.04)(1.04)] + $3,000(1.04) = $3,000(1.0816) + $3,000(1.04) = $3,244.80 +
$3,120 = $6,364.80
9. Assume you are planning to invest $5,000 each year for six years and will earn 10 percent
per year. Determine the future value of this annuity if your first $5,000 is invested at the
end of the first year.
First investment at end of 1 year (ordinary annuity problem):
$5,000(7.716) = $38,580
10. Determine the present value now of an investment of $3,000 made one year from now and
an additional $3,000 made two years from now if the annual discount rate is 4 percent.

11. What is the present value of a loan that calls for the payment of $500 per year for six years
if the discount rate is 10 percent and the first payment will be made one year from now?
How would your answer change if the $500 per year occurred for ten years?
The PVIFA factor at 12 percent for five years is 3.605 [See Appendix, Table 4].
$500,000/3.605 = $138,696 (rounded to whole dollars)
13. Determine the annual payment on a $15,000 loan that is to be amortized over a four-year
period and carries a 10 percent interest rate. Also prepare a loan amortization schedule for
this loan.

15. Assume a bank loan requires an interest payment of $85 per year and a principal payment
of $1,000 at the end of the loan’s eight-year life.
a. How much could this loan be sold for to another bank if loans of similar quality carried
an 8.5 percent interest rate? That is, what would be the present value of this loan?
8.5% for 8 years:
Note: This loan would have a present value of $1,000 (the same as the $1,000 current
principal) since the interest rate on the loan of 8.5% ($85/$1,000) is the same as the
8.5% interest rate required on similar quality loans. This could be proven using a
financial calculator that can handle fractional interest rates (our tables cannot handle
interest rates expressed to one half of a percent). Using a financial calculator, we would
enter 1000 and press FV, enter 85 and press PMT, enter 8.5 and press %i, and enter 8
and press N. Then, press CPT and PV to find a present value of 1000.
b. Now, if interest rates on other similar quality loans were 10 percent, what would be the
present value of this loan?
10% for 8 years:
$85 × 5.335 = $453
$1,000 × .467 = 467
$920
c. Finally, what would be the present value of the loan if the interest rate is 8 percent on
similar quality loans?
8% for 8 years:
$85 × 5.747 = $488
$1,000 × .540 = 540
$1,028
16. Use a financial calculator or computer software program to answer the following questions:
a. What would be the future value of $15,555 invested now if it earns interest at 14.5
percent for seven years?
Using a financial calculator, enter 15555 and press PV, enter 14.5 and press %i, and
enter 7 and press N. Then, press CPT and FV which gives an answer of 40133.63 or
$40,133.63.
b. What would be the future value of $19,378 invested now if the money remains deposited
for eight years and the annual interest rate is 18 percent?
9-12
Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
Using a financial calculator, enter 19378 and press PV, enter 18 and press %i, and enter
8 and press N. Then, press CPT and FV which gives an answer of 72839.17 or
$72,839.17.
17. Use a financial calculator or computer software program to answer the following
questions:
a. What is the present value of $359,000 that is to be received at the end of 23 years if the
discount rate is 11 percent?
Using a financial calculator, enter 359000 and press FV, enter 11 and press %i, and
enter 23 and press N. Then, press CPT and PV which gives an answer of 32558.62 or
$32,558.62.
b. How would your answer change in Part (a) if the $359,000 is to be received at the end
of 20 years?
Follow the procedure in (a), but substitute the number 20 before pressing N. The
answer is 44528.17 or $44,528.17.
18. Use a financial calculator or computer software program to answer the following questions:
a. What would be the future value of $7,455 invested annually for nine years beginning
one year from now if the annual interest rate is 19 percent?
Using a financial calculator, enter 7455 and press PMT, enter 19 and press %i, and enter
9 and press N. Then, press CPT and FV which gives an answer of 148529.05 or
$148,529.05.
b. What would be the present value of a $9,532 annuity for which the first payment will be
made beginning one year from now, payments will last for 27 years, and the annual
interest rate is 13 percent?
Using a financial calculator, enter 9532 and press PMT, enter 13 and press %i, and enter
27 and press N. Then, press CPT and PV which gives an answer of 70618.35 or
$70,618.35.
19. Use a financial calculator or computer software program to answer the following questions.
a. What would be the future value of $19,378 invested now if the money remains deposited
for eight years, the annual interest rate is 18 percent, and interest on the investment is
compounded semiannually?
Using a financial calculator, enter 19378 and press PV, enter 9.00 (18/2) and press %i,
and enter 16 (8 × 2) and press N. Then, press CPT and FV which gives an answer of
76936.59 or $76,936.59.
b. How would your answer for (a) change if quarterly compounding were used?
Using a financial calculator, enter 19378 and press PV, enter 4.50 (18/4) and press %i,
and enter 32 (8 × 4) and press N. Then, press CPT and FV which gives an answer of
79255.65 or $79,255.65.

Using a financial calculator, enter 359000 and press FV, enter 5.50 (11/2) and press
%i, and enter 46 (23 x 2) and press N. Then, press CPT and PV which gives an
answer of 30583.09 or $30,583.09.
b. How would your answer for (a) change if monthly discounting were used?
Using a financial calculator, enter 359000 and press FV, enter .9167 (11/12) and press

investments if the discount rate is 15 percent. Also find the present values for each
investment using 10 percent and 20 percent discount rates.
b. Find the future values of these three investments at the end of year five if the compound
interest rate is 12.5 percent. Also find the future values for each investment using 2.5

c. Find the present values of the three investments using a 15 percent annual discount rate
but with quarterly discounting. Also find the present values for both semi-annual and
monthly discounting for a 15 percent stated annual rate.
Note: we are only presenting results for the “stable” investment. To calculate present
values using more frequent than annual discounting when uneven cash flows are
involved is quite time consuming. If assigned, we suggest that only semi-annual
discounting be emphasized.

d. Find the future values of the three investments using a 12.5 percent annual compound
rate but with quarterly compounding. Also find the future values for both semi-annual
and monthly compounding for a 12.5 percent stated annual rate.
Note: we are only presenting results for the “stable” investment. To calculate future
values using more frequent than annual compounding when uneven cash flows are
involved is quite time consuming. If assigned, we suggest that only semi-annual
compounding be emphasized.
e. Assume that the present value for each of the three investments is $75,000. What is the
annual interest rate (%i) for each investment?
A trial and error process is used to find the discount rate that makes the present values of
the cash flows equal to $75,000 at the end of year 0. These rates are:
Stable: 10.42%
Declining: 10.04%
Growing: 15.09%
f. Show how your answers would change in (e) if quarterly discounting takes place.
Because of more frequent than annual discounting and the complexities associated with
uneven cash flows, we show results only for the “Stable” investment. The investment is
$75,000, the period cash flow is $5000, and the number of periods is 20. This results in
a discount rate of 2.9115% quarterly, or 11.65% (2.9115% x 4) annually.
g. Assume that the future value for each of the three investments is $150,000. What is the Formatted: Font: Italic

4. A $9,000 loan will require interest payments of $4,000 per year for 3 years. Calculate the
compound interest rate on this loan.
Solution:
$9,000/$4,000 = 2.250 PVIFA for 3 years
This PVIFA falls approximately at a compound interest rate of 16% (2.246) as shown in
Table 4 in the Appendix.
Financial calculator solution:
Enter 9000 and press PV, enter 4000 and press PMT, and enter 3 and press N. Then, press
the PT and %i keys which gives an answer of 15.89 or 15.89%.
When the cash flows occur at the beginning of each time period, this is referred to as an
annuity due.

Annuity Due Problems
LECTURE NOTES
An annuity is a cash flow steam that is constant or level in each time period. In contrast
with an ordinary annuity, an annuity due exists when the equal periodic payments occur at
the beginning of each period. The process of working future value of annuity due problems
is described in the Learning Extension addition to Chapter 9.
Occasionally there are present value annuity due problems. For example, leasing
arrangements often require the person leasing equipment to make the first payment at the
time the equipment is delivered. The process of working present value of annuity due
problems is described in the Learning Extension addition to Chapter 9.
9-18
Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
Tables containing FVIFA and PVIFA factors are not readily available for annuity due
problems. Thus, we should use either a computer software program or a financial calculator
when solving for either the interest rate or the time periods involved in annuity due problems.
The process of finding interest rates (or time periods) for annuity due problems is described
in the Learning Extension to Chapter 9.
1. Assume you are planning to invest $100 each year for four years and will earn 10 percent per
year. Determine the future value of this annuity due problem if your first $100 is invested
now.
2. Assume you are planning to invest $5,000 each year for six years and will earn 10 percent per
year. Determine the future value of this annuity due problem if your first $5,000 is invested
now.
3. What is the present value of a five-year lease arrangement with an interest rate of 9 percent
that requires annual payments of $10,000 per year with the first payment being due now?

Chapter Nine: Time Value of Money
4. Use a financial calculator to solve for the interest rate involved in the following future value of
an annuity due problem. The future value is $57,000, the annual payment is $7,500, and the
time period is 6 years.
Enter 57000 and press the FV key. Next enter -7500 and press the PMT key and enter 6 and
press the N key. Then, press the DUE key followed by the %i key. The solution will be 6.795
or 6.795 percent.
5. Challenge Problem (Note: This problem requires access to a spreadsheet software package
or a financial calculator that can handle uneven cash flows.) Following are the cash flows
for three investments (originally presented in Problem 25 [not 24 as indicated in text] at the
end of the chapter) that actually occur at the beginning of each year rather than at the end of
each year.
a. Find the present values at the end of time period zero for each of these three
investments if the discount rate is 15 percent.
b. Find the future values of these three investments at the end of year five if the compound
