phyments are known as lump sums. We cen solve for the future value of the present value of a hump turn as we discuss balow Finoing the future value (FV), of is the process of going foom tedsy's values to fotury amounts. The PY equation ia: YVM=PV(1+1)N Here, pV = pretent volue: I - interest rate per yes, and N = number of periods. You can ise calculaters and spreadaheets to find fieure values. A sraah of the procets shows how any sum grows over time at various irterest 1 is th. The greater the interest rate, the the growth rate. Finding the present value (FW) is called discounting, and it is timply the reverse of amoust ntich, if it were on hand today, wouls grow to ecual the given future amount. The Fir equation is: Present value ar PY=(1+E2)2Wx A oraph of the discourting process shows how the present. value of any wam to be received in the future deceases and agproathes the present value deciines faster at interest rates. The fundamental goat of fnancial management is to maximize the firmis value, and the value of any asset is the value of its expected future cash fows. One cen tolve for either the interest rate or the number of periods using the PV and the W equations.
