Money-time relationships
Money has a time value because it can earn interest (or profit)over time.Simple interest:Total interest is linearly proportional to the amount of loan(principal), the interest rate, and the number of interest periods.
I = (P)(N)(i)
I : total interestP : principalN : number of interest periodsi : interest rate per interest period.
Example 4.1: You borrowed $10,000 for 3 years at a simpleinterest rate of 10%. How much will you repay at the end of 3rdyear?I = (10, 000)(3)(0.1) = $3, 000. You need to pay $13,000.
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Compound interest:Suppose the interest accumulates as follows:Period, p Amount owed Interest amount Amount owed
at the start of p for p at the end of p1 $10,000 $1,000 $11,0002 $11,000 $1,100 $12,1003 $12,100 $1,210 $13,310
You would repay $13,310. Total interest payment would be$13,310-$10,000=$3,310>$3,000 (interest in simple interestcalculation).Interest accumulates over the earned interests in the previousperiods. More common than simple interest.
Generalize: Future equivalent of $10,000 (P) at the end of 3 (N)periods is P(1 + i)N = $10, 000(1.1)3.
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Economic equivalence
When comparing the alternatives, we should consider:
the interest ratethe amounts of money involvedthe timing of the monetary receipts or expensesthe manner in which the interest (or profit) is paid
Back to the example with compound interest:$10,000 now is equivalent to $11,000 one year from now, and itis equivalent to $12,100 two years from now under the fixedcompound interest rate of 10%. One should be indifferentbetween the following three alternatives:
1 Pay/receive $10,000 now2 Pay/receive $11,000 one year from now3 Pay/receive $12,100 two years from now
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Example 4.2 (3 plans for repayment of $10,000 in three yearsat 10% per year)You owe $10,000 to your credit card company. You have 3plans to pay the balance back:
Plan 1: Pay interest due at end of each year and principal atend of third year.Year Amount owed Interest Principal payment Total pmnt.1 10,000 1,000 0 1,0002 10,000 1,000 0 1,0003 10,000 1,000 10,000 11,000
Total: 3,000 13,000
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Plan 2: Pay principal and interest in one payment at the end ofthird year.Year Amount owed Interest Principal payment Total pmnt.1 10,000 1,000 0 02 11,000 1,100 0 03 12,100 1,210 10,000 13,310
Total: 3,310 13,310
Plan 3: Pay off the debt in 3 equal end-of-year payments.Year Amount owed Interest Principal payment Total pmnt.1 10,000 1,000 3,021 4,0212 6,979 697.9 3,323 4,0213 3,656 365.6 3,656 4,021
Total: 2,063.5 12,063
Plan 1,2 and 3 are all equivalent at the compound interest rateof 10%! (Why? You can answer it at the end of this chapter.)

Cash-flow diagrams
i = effective interest rate per interest periodN = number of compounding periodsP = the present sum of moneyF = future sum of moneyA = end-of-period cash flows in a uniform series for a specifiednumber of periods, starting at the end of first period andcontinuing through the last period.
In a cash-flow diagram:horizontal line represents time scale,arrows represent cash flows. Downward arrows representexpenses (negative cash flows or cash outflows) andupward arrows represent receipts (positive cash flows orcash inflows).The cash-flow diagram is dependent on the point of view.In the course, without explicitly mention, the company’s(investor’s) point of view will be taken.

Rules for performing calculations with cash flows
Three Rules for performing arithmetic calculations with cashflows:
1 Cash flows cannot be added or subtracted unless theyoccur at the same point in time.
2 To move a cash flow forward in time by one time unit,multiply the magnitude of the cash flow by (1 + i).
3 To move a cash flow backward in time by one time unit,divide the magnitude of the cash flow by (1 + i).

Rule: Uniform (equal) receipts, A, at the end of each period forN periods at an interest rate of i% per period, where the firstreceipt occurs at the end of the first period and the last oneoccurs at the end of the Nth period.
Finding F when A is given
Find the future equivalent at the end of Nth period of each cashflow A. Then sum them up.Future equivalent at the end of period N of the cash flow thathappens at the end of period 1: A(F/P, i%, N − 1)Future equivalent at the end of period N of the cash flow thathappens at the end of period 2: A(F/P, i%, N − 2)...........Future equivalent at the end of period N of the cash flow thathappens at the end of period N: A(F/P, i%, 0)

The plantsuperintendent has arranged to purchase the additive througha 5-year contract at $7,000 per year, starting 1 year from now.He expects the annual price to increase by 12% per yearthereafter for the next 8 years. Additionally, an initial investmentof $35,000 was made now to prepare a site suitable for thecontractor to deliver the additive.

Nominal and effective interest rates
You are given two 1-year fixed deposit saving plans. Theinterest rate of the two plans are:Plan 1: 12% per year (compounded annually).Plan 2: 12% per year compounded monthly.
Which plan will you choose?

In Plan 1, the interest rate "12% per year" is known as theeffective interest rate per year, the same as the one we usebefore.
In plan 2, the interest rate "12% per year compounded monthly"is known as the nominal interest rate per year with thecompounding period 1 month (or compounding frequency 12).

Payment Period and Compounding Period
Payment Period (PP) and Compounding Period (CP) of cashflow:
Type 1: PP = CP (Done!)Type 2: PP > CPType 3: PP < CP
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Type 2: PP > CP
The strategy in this case is to find the effective interest rate perPP by using the relation (NOM-EFF).
Example 4.17: For the past 7 years, a quality manager has paid$500 every 6 months for the software maintenance contract ofa LAN. What is the equivalent amount after the last payment, ifthese funds are taken from a pool that has been returning 10%per year compounded quarterly?
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Solution
PP = 6 months; CP = 3 months.
The effective interest rate per 6-month i is given by
i =(

− 1 = 0.05063.
The equivalent amount after the last payment= 500(F/A, 5.063%, 14) = $9, 842.
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Type 3: PP < CP; Case 1
Assumption: Interperiod cash flows earn interest.
Under the above assumption, the strategy is similar to the caseof Type 2 by finding the effective interest rate per PP. Differentfrom Type 2, we cannot apply the relation of the nominal andeffective interest rates in (NOM-EFF) directly. The detailedtreatment can refer to Example 4.18 below.

Example 4.18
Suppose you make $500 monthly deposits to a tax-deferredretirement plan that pays interest at a rate of 10% per yearcompounded quarterly. Compute the balance at the end of 10years.
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Solution
PP = 1 month; CP = 3 months.
The effective interest rate per 1 month i is given by
i =(

)1/3
− 1 = 0.826%
The balance at the end of 10 years =$500(F/A, 0.826%, 120) = $101, 907.89.
SEEM2440A/B Chapter 4 - Time value of money
Type 3: PP < CP; Case 2
Assumption: Interperiod cash flows earn no interest.
In this case,Deposits (negative cash flows) are all regarded asdeposited at the end of the compounding period.Withdrawals (positive cash flows) are all regarded aswithdrawn at the beginning of the compounding period.

Example 4.19
Consider Example 4.18 again. Suppose that money depositedduring a quarter (the compounding period) will not earn anyinterest. Compute the balance at the end of 10 years.

Solution
The effective interest rate per quarter = 10%4 = 2.5%.
A = 3($500) = $1, 500 per quarter.So,F = $1, 500(F/A, 2.5%, 40) = $101, 103.83.
