What Is the The value of a future
Present Value promise to pay or receive a
single amount at a specified
of a Single interest rate is called the
Amount? present value of a single
amount.
Where,
PV = Present value of the amount
FV = Future value of the amount (amount to be received in future)
i = Interest rate in percentage
n = number of periods after which amount will be received in
future

A Company is expecting
to receive $8,000 after 5
years from now. Calculate
Solution PV = FV x 1 / (1+i)^n
Using the above present
= 8,000 x 1 / (1+12%)^5
value formula: = 8,000 x 1 / (1+0.12)^5
= 8,000 x 1 / (1.12)^5
*Number of periods (n) = 5 = 8,000 x 1 / 1.7623
*Interest rate (i) = 12% = 8,000 x 0.5674
= $4,540
8
The amount of $8,000 to be received
after 5 years has a present value of
$4,540. This example shows if the
$4,540 is invested today @12%
interest rate per year compounded
annually, it will grow to $8,000 after 5
years.

What Is the The value of a current
Future Value single amount taken to a
future date at a specified
of a Single interest rate is called the
Amount? future value of a single
amount.
EXPLANATION
To explain the concept of the future value of a
single amount, let’s assume the following data:
Formula to Calculate the Future Value of 11
a Single Amount
Where:
p = Principal amount
i = Interest rate
n = Number of compounding periods
12
Solution PV = FV x 1 / (1+i)^n
Using the above present
= 5000 x 1 / (1+6%)^3
value formula: = 5000 x 1 / (1+0.06)^3
= 5000 x 1 / (1.06)^3
*Number of periods (n) = 3 = 5000 x 1 / 1.1910
*Interest rate (i) = 6% = 5000 x 0.8396
= $4,198/$4,198.1
PROBLEM: Future Value of Single 18
Amount
Solution F= FV x PV
