Interest: The Cost of Money In fnancal world money tself s a commodty. Money costs money Cost of Money measured by an nterest rate Interest The cost of havng money avalable
The Tme Value of Money Example: Buy today or buy later?
The Tme Value of Money (Cont d The prncple of the Tme value of money The economc value of a sum depends on when the sum s receved. Money has both earnng power and purchasng power over tme. A dollar receved today has a greater value than a dollar receved at some future tme. The operaton of nterest and the tme value of money have to be consdered for decdng among alternatve proposals.
Elements of Transactons Involvng Interest Types of transactons nvolve nterest: E.g. borrowng money nvestng money or purchasng machnery on credt Common elements n transactons: Prncple (P The ntal amount of money nvested or borrowed Interest rate ( Measures the cost or prce of money Expressed as a percentage per perod of tme. Interest perod (n Determnes how frequently nterest s calculated. umber of nterest perods ( A plan for recepts or dsbursements (A n Yelds a partcular cash flow pattern over a specfed length of tme. E.g. a seres of equal monthly payments that repay a loan. Future amount of money (F Results from the cumulatve effects of the nterest rate over a number of nterest perods.
Example of an Interest Transacton An electroncs manufacturng company borrows $20000 from a bank at 9% annual nterest rate to buy a machne. The company also pays a $200 loan orgnaton fee when the loan commences. Two repayment plans are offered by the bank: Prncple amount P s $20000. Interest rate s 9% Plan : Interest perod n s one year. Duraton of the transacton s fve years. umber of nterest perods = 5 Repayment Plans Offered by the Lender End of Year Recepts Payments Plan Plan 2 Year 0 $20000.00 $200.00 $200.00 Year 54.85 Year 2 54.85 Year 3 54.85 Year 4 54.85 Year 5 54.85 30772.48 Both payment plans are based on a rate of 9% nterest.

Cash Flow Dagrams What s t? The flow of cash! $9800 $20000 Cash flow at n=0 Is a net cash flow After summng $20000 and takng away $200 = 9% $200 0 Years 2 3 4 5 $54.85 $54.85 $54.85 $54.85 $54.85 End-of-perod conventon The assumpton of placng all cash flow transactons at the end of an nterest perod When to use t? Cash flow dagrams s strongly recommended for stuatons n whch the analyst needs to clarfy or vsualze what s nvolved when flows of money occur at varous tme.
Smple Interest The total nterest earned s lnearly proportonal to the prncpal (loan. The nterest do not accumulate Mathematcally I = ( P( ( where P = Prncple = number of perods (e.g. year = nterest rate per nterest perod Queston: How much nterest we need to pay f we have borrowed $000 for 3 years wth an annual nterest rate of 0%?
Compound Interest The nterest earned for any perod s based on the remanng prncpal amount plus any accumulated nterest charges up to the begnnng of that perod. Mathematcally I = ( P n= n ( = P[( ] Queston: What s the nterest we need to pay f we have borrowed $000 for 3 years wth an annual nterest rate of 0%? Year Year 2 Year 3 Borrowed $000 $00 $20 Interest $00 $0 $2
Compound Interest (cont d Suppose that the nterest s accumulated n sx months (twce a year Queston: What s the nterest we need to pay f we have borrowed $000 for 3 years wth a 5% nterest rate for every sx months? Year 0.5 Year Year.5 Year 2 Year 2.5 Year 3 Borrowed $000 $050 $52.5 $207.6 Interest $50 $52.5 $55. $60.4 ote that the nterest that we have to pay s more than 0% a year!
Economc Equvalence Consder the followng two opton: (a Receve $20000 today and $50000 ten years from now (b Receve $8000 each year for the next 0 years Whch one to choose?
Economc Equvalence (Cont d Economc equvalence exsts between cash flows that have the same economc effect and could therefore be traded for one another. Economc equvalence refers to the fact that a cash flow whether a sngle payment or a seres of payments can be converted to an equvalent cash flow at any pont n tme. Even though the amounts and tmng of the cash flows may dffer the approprate nterest rate makes them equal.
Economc Equvalence (Cont d Comparson of alternatves Compare the value of alternatves by fndng the equvalent value of alternatves at any common pont n tme Usng compound nterest to establsh economc equvalence:
Economc Equvalence (Cont d A smple example We nvest $000 at 2% annual nterest for fve years At the end of the nvestment perod our sums grow to: F = P( = $000( 0.2 5 = $762.34 We could trade $000 now for the promse of recevng $762.34 n fve years.

More About the Formulas For most of the problems they are very complex and we have to combne the formulas and reformulate the cash flow dagram to solve these problems. That s why cash flow dagram s very useful.
