TIME VALUE OF MONEY:
Time value of money is the concept that the value of a dollar to be received in
future is less than the value of a dollar on hand today. One reason is that money
received today can be invested thus generating more money. Another reason is
that when a person opts to receive a sum of money in future rather than today,
he is effectively lending the money and there are risks involved in lending such as
default risk and inflation. Default risk arises when the borrower does not pay the
money back to the lender. Inflation is the decrease in purchasing power of money
due to a general increase level of overall price level.
PRESENT VALUE:
When a future payment or series of payments are discounted at the given interest
rate to the present date to reflect the time value of money, the resulting value is
called present value.
For example, if you have to pay $1,000 in one year and the bank offers an annual
percentage rate of 10% on any money that you deposit, you must deposit at least
$909.1 (=$1,000/(1+10%)) today. This is the present value of $1,000 payment to
be made in one year. Present value of an annuity finds out the present value of a
series of equal cash flows that occur after equal period of time. The present value
of annuity further depends on whether it is an (ordinary) annuity or an annuity
due.
FUTURE VALUE:
Future value is amount that is obtained by enhancing the value of a present
payment or a series of payments at the given interest rate to reflect the time
value of money. Let us that you deposit $909.1 in a bank today which pays 10%
annual percentage rate. Your account would grow to $1,000 (=$909.1 × (1 + 10%))
by the end of first year. This is the future value.

INTEREST:
Interest is charge against use of money paid by the borrower to the lender
in addition to the actual money lent. The amount of interest depends on
whether there is simple interest or compound interest. In simple interest,
there is no interest on interest but in compound interest, interest is
calculated on both principal and interest already earned. It also depends on
whether we are working with an interest rate or a discount rate.
If the interest rate is high, time duration is longer and compounding periods
are more frequent, the present value is lower and vice versa.
It is the basis used to work out the intrinsic value of a firm, a share of
common stock, a bond or any other financial instrument.

SIMPLE INTEREST:
DEFINITION:
EXPLANATION:
The formula for calculating simple interest is: Principal, Interest Rate, Term
of the loan.
Loans rarely use the simple-interest calculation, but those that do are auto
loans and short-term personal loans. A handful of mortgages also use this
calculation, most notably the biweekly mortgage. One of the reasons that
the biweekly mortgage helps borrowers pay their homes off quicker is that
paying the interest more frequently accelerates the payoff date.
With simple-interest loans, the lender applies the payment to the month’s
interest first; the remainder of the payment reduces the principal. Each
month, the borrower pays the interest in full so that it never accrues. If she
pays her loan late, she’ll have to pay more money to cover the additional
interest and keep the loan’s specified payoff date. This contrasts with
compound interest, which adds a portion of the old interest to the loan. The
lender then calculates new interest on the old interest owed by the
borrower.
Simple interest is also rare with savings accounts; most savings accounts
use the compounding method to calculate interest.
EXAMPLE:

Sara takes out a new short-term personal loan. The loan is a Rs.20,000
auto loan with 3 percent interest for five years, meaning that she’ll owe
Rs.3,000 over the life of the loan: Rs.20,000 x .03 x 5. Each month, Rs.50
of her payment goes toward interest on the loan.
COMPOUND INTEREST:
DEFINITION:
EXPLANATION:
There are two ways of thinking about interest: it is the price borrowers pay
lenders for credit, or the fee depositors demand for leaving their money in
a bank. In addition, there are two methods for calculating interest.
With the simple-interest approach, interest is only calculated against the
principal.

bank uses to determine how interest compounds is called the compounding
method.
EXAMPLE:
Rashid invests Rs.100 at an interest rate of 5 percent. After the first year,
his account is worth Rs.105. After that period ends, the interest
compounds, and the next year he earns 5 percent of Rs.105, or Rs.5.25,
which brings his account to Rs.110.25. As time goes on, the value of his
investment increases. However, the third year, when his account is worth
Rs.115.76, Rashid decides to withdraw the interest bringing his account
down to Rs.100. The following year, he only earns $5 again.
WHAT IS ANNUITIES?
An annuity is a series of equal payments made at equal intervals during a
period of time. In other words, it’s a system of making or receiving
payments where the payment amount and time period between payments
is equal.
An annuity is the payment or receipt of equal cash flows per period for a
specified amount of time. An ordinary annuity is one in which the payments
or receipts occur at the end of each period, as shown. An annuity due is
one in which payments or receipts occur at the beginning of each period,
as shown. Most lease payments, such as apartment rentals, and life
insurance premiums are annuities due. In a 4-year ordinary annuity, the
last payment is made at the end of the fourth year. In a 4-year annuity due,
the last payment is made at the end of the third year (the beginning of the
fourth year).

are making regular payments on a loan, the future value is useful in
determining the total cost of the loan.
I = interest rate
n = number of payments
EXAMPLE OF ANNUITY:
Many people play the lottery in hopes to cash in on the big jackpot.
Unfortunately, most people don’t win it big, but an extremely small
percentage of people do. After they win, they often have to make the
choice whether to be paid in a lump sum or in an annuity. For example, a
million dollar jackpot could be paid out immediately in one lump sum of
$600,000 or in $5,000 monthly installments for 15 years.

This option takes the time value of money into consideration. Notice that
neither option actually pays out a full $1,000,000. This is because over time
money should earn interest. Thus, $600,000 today will equal $1,000,000 in
the future after interest is added up over the years. The same is true for the
annuity payments.
The bank determines the interest rate and the time value of money needed
to recoup their principle and generate the adequate return on the loan.
TYPE OF ANNUITIES:
An annuity is a contractual arrangement with an insurer to exchange an
upfront premium for future (usually retirement) payments. Retirees then
have a guaranteed income that isn’t subject to stock market swings. There
are four main types of annuities:
