If you have put money into the stock or bond market or into a savings account; made monthly auto or mortgage payments; or paid down your student loan ahead of time, you have inherently applied TVM.

• Discuss how you may have used TVM in a recent investment or loan decision, and explain some of the TVM details that may have been involved in your transaction.
• If you have not used TVM in the past financial transactions, explain potential TVM applications you would encounter in future business or personal transactions.
• Show the math you would use to make these decisions based on todays economy.

Your initial discussion post must include one outside resource, which may include the Internet or Library, and must be cited according to current APA formatting.
