Summary

Time value of money is a key concept in corporate finance. Students learn how to calculate the value of money over time, and how to use time lines to represent cash flows.

Time lines and cash flows

Time lines show when money is received or paid. Cash flows can happen at any time, not just yearly. This part shows how to draw time lines for different situations.

Interest rates and discounting

Discounting is a way to find today's value of money received in the future. Interest rates affect how much money is worth today. This part explains how discount rates change the value of future cash flows.

Annuities and their types

An annuity is a series of equal cash flows. Ordinary annuities happen at the end of each period. This part describes how to calculate the value of different types of annuities.

Interest rates and loan payments

Interest rates affect loan payments. Lower interest rates mean less of each payment goes to interest. This part asks how interest rates change the makeup of loan payments.
