Summary

The time value of money is a key concept in finance. It explains how much money received today is worth more than the same amount received in the future. This document gives examples of how to calculate the present value and future value of money. It also shows how to apply these calculations to real-world financial situations.

Bond Pricing

Bond pricing is based on the present value of all future cash flows. These cash flows include periodic interest payments and the principal amount due at the end of the bond's life. The prevailing market rate of interest at the time of the bond’s issuance is used to discount these cash flows.

Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit (CDs) are investments with a fixed interest rate. The maturity value of a CD is calculated using the future value factor at the fixed interest rate. The market interest rate at maturity is irrelevant if the fair value option is not elected.

Noninterest-Bearing Notes

Noninterest-bearing notes require payments over time. The present value of these payments is calculated using the prevailing market interest rate. This present value is reported as the note receivable or payable on the balance sheet.

Franchise Fees

Franchise fees often involve an initial payment and future payments. The acquisition cost of the franchise is the sum of the initial payment and the present value of the future payments. The present value is calculated using the interest rate at which the franchisee can borrow money.
