ACTIVITY #5: TIME VALUE OF MONEY (30 pts)

Name: ____Xytus Anne Cortero__________ Section: __AC24______


INSTRUCTIONS:
Answer the following questions and cite your corresponding source/s.
1. What is time value of money all about? (2 pts)
Answer: The time value of money (TVM) is the concept that money you have now is
worth more than the identical sum in the future due to its potential earning capacity. This core
principle of finance holds that provided money can earn interest, any amount of money is worth
more the sooner it is received.

2. (4 pts) What is simple interest?


a. Define simple interest. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. Simple interest is a quick and easy method of calculating the interest charge on
a loan.

b. This type of interest usually applies to automobile loans or short-term loans,


although some mortgages use this calculation method.

c. Simple interest is determined by multiplying the daily interest rate by the


principal by the number of days that elapse between payments.
Simple Interest=P×I×N
where:
P=principle
I=daily interest rate
N=number of days between payments

d. Mr. Albertson plans to place his money in a certificate of deposit that matures
in three months. The principal is $10,000 and 5% interest is earned annually. He
wants to calculate how much interest he will earn in those three months.
I=PxRxT
I = $10,000 x 5%/year x 3/12 of a year
I = $125

3. (4 pts) What is Present Value?


a. Define Present Value. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. Present value (PV) is the current value of a future sum of money or stream of
cash flows given a specified rate of return. Future cash flows are discounted at the
discount rate, and the higher the discount rate, the lower the present value of the
future cash flows.

b. Present value provides an estimate of what we should spend today to have an


investment worth a certain amount of money at a specific point in the future.

c. Present Value= FV/(1+r)n


where:
FV=Future Value
r=Rate of return
n=Number of periods

d. Suppose you are depositing an amount today in an account that earns 5%


interest, compounded annually. If your goal is to have $5,000 in the account at the
end of six years, how much must you deposit in the account today?
Solution:
The following information is given:
future value = $5,000
interest rate = 5%
number of periods = 6

Inserting the known information,


PV = $5,000 / (1 + 0.05)6
PV = $5,000 / (1.3401)
PV = $3,731

5. What is compound interest? (1 pt)


Answer: Compound interest (or compounding interest) is the interest on a loan or
deposit calculated based on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous
periods.

6. (4 pts) What is Future Value?


a. Define Future Value. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. Future value (FV) refers to a method of calculating how much the present value
(PV) of an asset or cash will be worth at a specific time in the future. Knowing the
future value enables investors to make sound investment decisions based on their
anticipated needs.

b. The future value (FV) is important to investors and financial planners as they
use it to estimate how much an investment made today will be worth in the future.

c. Future Value(FV) = Present Value (1 + (Interest Rate x Number of Years))

d. Let’s say Bob invests $1,000 for five years with an interest rate of 10%. This
time, it’s compounded annually. The future value of Bob’s investment would be
$1,610.51.

7. (4 pts) What is Present Value of Ordinary Annuity?


a. Define Present Value of Ordinary Annuity. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. The present value of an annuity is the current value of future payments from an
annuity, given a specified rate of return, or discount rate. The higher the discount
rate, the lower the present value of the annuity.

b. You can use a present value calculation to determine whether you'll receive
more money by taking a lump sum now or an annuity spread out over a number of
years.
c. PV of Ordinary Annuity = PMT× (1-(1/(1+r )ˆn)/r)
where:
PMT=Dollar amount of each annuity payment
r=Interest rate (also known as discount rate)
n=Number of periods in which payments will be made
d. Let’s say your structured settlement pays you $1,000 a year for 10 years. If you
keep all your payments, you will eventually receive $10,000. But what if you lose
your job and need more than $1,000 a year to cover your expenses? Let’s assume
you want to sell five years’ worth of payments, or $5,000, and the factoring
company applies a 10 percent discount rate.
In this example,

PMT= $1,000
r= 10 percent, represented as 0.10
n= 5 (one payment each year for five years)

8. (4 pts) What is Future Value of Ordinary Annuity?
a. Define Future Value of Ordinary Annuity. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. The future value of an annuity is the value of a group of recurring payments at
a certain date in the future, assuming a particular rate of return, or discount
rate. The higher the discount rate, the greater the annuity's future value.

b. In an ordinary annuity, the first cash flow occurs at the end of the first period.
c. FV of Ordinary Annuity = PMT× [(1+r)n-1)/r]
where:
PMT=Dollar amount of each annuity payment
r=Interest rate (also known as discount rate)
n=Number of periods in which payments will be made

d. For example, assume someone decides to invest $125,000 per year for the next
five years in an annuity they expect to compound at 8% per year. The expected
future value of this payment stream using the above formula is as follows:
FV of Ordinary Annuity = $125,000× [(1+.08)5-1/.08]= $733,325

9. (4 pts) What is Present Value of Annuity Due?


a. Define Present Value of Annuity Due. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. The present value of an annuity due uses the basic present value concept for
annuities, except we should discount cash flow to time zero.

b. The discounted value of a series of equal amounts occurring at the beginning of


each equal time interval. The first payment is received at the start of the first
period and, thereafter, at the start of each subsequent period.

c. For this formula, the following values are used:


P = periodic payment
r = rate per period
n = number of periods
The formula used is:
PV of Annuity Due = P + P (1-(1+r)ˆ-(n-1)/r)

d. For example, an annuity due's interest rate is 5%, you are promised the money
at the end of 3 years and the payment is $100 per year.

Using the present value of an annuity due formula:

PV of Annuity Due = 100 + 100[1-(1+.05)ˆ-(3-1)/.05]


PV of Annuity Due = 200(1-(1.05)ˆ-2/.05) = $285.94
The value of $285.94 is the current value of three payments of $100 with 5%
interest.

10. (4 pts) What is Future Value of Annuity Due?


a. Define Future Value of Annuity Due. (1 pt)
b. When do you use it? (1 pt)
c. What is its formula? (1 pt)
d. Give one sample problem. (1 pt)
Answer:
a. The future value of an annuity due uses the same basic future value concept for
annuities with a slight tweak, as in the present value formula. The amount that a
recurring equal amount deposited at the beginning of each period will grow to
under compounded interest. An annuity due is also known as an annuity in
advance.

b. An annuity due is a series of payments made at the beginning of each period in


the series. Therefore, the formula for the future value of an annuity due refers to
the value on a specific future date of a series of periodic payments, where each
payment is made at the beginning of a period.

c. FV of Annuity Due = PMT [((1+r)n-1/r)(1 + r)]

Where:
PMT = The amount of each annuity payment
r = The interest rate
n = The number of periods over which payments are to be made

d. For example, the treasurer of ABC Imports expects to invest $50,000 of the
firm's funds in a long-term investment vehicle at the beginning of each year for
the next five years. He expects that the company will earn 6% interest that will
compound annually. The value that these payments should have at the end of the
five-year period is calculated as:

FV of Annuity Due = $50,000 [(1+.06)5-1/.06)(1 + .06)]


FV of Annuity Due = $298,765.90
