Time Value of Money: $100 today or a year later ? today is better ∵ uncertainty alternative uses, inflation 4
Mathematics of Compound Interest Simple interest: S = s.(1 + i.n) i: interest Compound interest:interest is paid more than once (interests add to principal) S = s.(1 + i )n Present Value (PV) …. . FV.Table 2 (s .Table 1) Future Value (FV) …. . PV.Table 1 i: discount rate = (riskless equity return + inflation rate + risk premium) 5
Mathematics of Compound Interest(續) The present value of a sequence of annual incomes: if n →∞ and FV constant (annuity) if FV constant but n → ∞ annuity FV = PV.Table 3 PV = FV / Table 3 or or FV = PV / Table 4 PV = FV.Table 4 6

Application of the Time Value of Money • Bond valuation : (p. 63) eg:Bond face value: $1000 , interest rate: 5%, time value of money: 7%, mature in 10 yrs. $1000 × 5% × 7. 0236+$1000 × 0. 5083=$859. 48 (Table 4) (Table 2) • Valuation of farm real estate: (p. 65) end of year 0 0 Table 4 1 0 2 0 Table 2 3 4 5. . . . ………. 20 0 $100 …. . . $100 $1, 200 Table 2 $100 13
