24 views2 pages

Document Summary

R is the interest rate applied to the present value. The risk attached to the cash flow is captured by r. Venture capital has high risk but bank cd has very low. Compound interest is due not only on the principal but on prior interest also. The amount of interest due each period is the interest rate times the principal amount at the beginning of each period: most finance applications involve compound interest. Present value finds the amount at time zero. As r increases, the future value of the cash flow increases: more interest more interest gets invested. As n increases, the future value of the cash flow increases: time is your friend. How do r and n affect present value: r and n are opposites. Interest may be compounded more frequently than once per year. Compounding more frequently means we are paid interest more frequently. M= how many times interest is compounded per year.
