What is Present Value (PV)? | Value today of a future cash flow (or series). |
What is Compounding? | The arithmetic process of determining the final value of a cash flow when compound interest is applied. |

What is discounting? | The process of finding the present value of a cash flow or series of cash flows; it is the opposite of compounding. |
What is the formula for Future Value (FV)? | PV*(1+I)^n |
What is the formula for Present Value? | FV/(1+I)^n |
How is discounting related to compounding? | Discounting is the process of finding the present value of a future value. It is the reverse of compounding. |
How are the future value and present value equations related? | Find present value and future value are opposites of each other, so the equation for present value is the equation for future value solved for present value. |
How does to present value of a future payment change as the time to receipt is lengthened and as the interest rate increases? | As the length of time and interest rate increases, the more money an investment generates, so the present value required to reach the same future value decreases. |
What is the Rule of 72? | The Rule of 72 is a method for estimating an investment's doubling time. 72/Interest Rate. |
What is an annuity? | A series of equal payments at fixed intervals for a specified number of periods. |
