Interest Rate
The value of money does not remain constant over time and i.e, money earns
interest over time. So it is important from the view point of capital budgeting
and investing and many other investment related decisions.
Suppose A wants to borrow $10,000 from B for a year. Let the market
rate of interest be 10%. How much should A pay B in a year?
FV = PV + interest at the rate of 10% p.a.
= PV + PV *10%
= PV(1 + 10%)
= PV(1 + r)
