Chapter 5
Time Value of Money
Learning Objectives
After reading this chapter, students should be able to:
Explain how the time value of money works and discuss why it is such an important concept in finance.
Calculate the present value and future value of lump sums.
Identify the different types of annuities, calculate the present value and future value of both an
ordinary annuity and an annuity due, and calculate the relevant annuity payments.
Calculate the present value and future value of an uneven cash flow stream. You will use this
knowledge in later chapters that show how to value common stocks and corporate projects.
Explain the difference between nominal, periodic, and effective interest rates. An understanding of
these concepts is necessary when comparing rates of returns on alternative investments.
Discuss the basics of loan amortization and develop a loan amortization schedule that you might use
when considering an auto loan or home mortgage loan.

Lecture Suggestions
We regard Chapter 5 as the most important chapter in the book, so we spend a good bit of time on it. We
approach time value in three ways. First, we try to get students to understand the basic concepts by use of
time lines and simple logic. Second, we explain how the basic formulas follow the logic set forth in the time
lines. Third, we show how financial calculators and spreadsheets can be used to solve various time value
problems in an efficient manner. Once we have been through the basics, we have students work problems
and become proficient with the calculations and also get an idea about the sensitivity of output, such as
present or future value, to changes in input variables, such as the interest rate or number of payments.
Some instructors prefer to take a strictly analytical approach and have students focus on the
formulas themselves. The argument is made that students treat their calculators as “black boxes,” and that
they do not understand where their answers are coming from or what they mean. We disagree. We think
that our approach shows students the logic behind the calculations as well as alternative approaches, and
because calculators are so efficient, students can actually see the significance of what they are doing better
if they use a calculator. We also think it is important to teach students how to use the type of technology
(calculators and spreadsheets) they must use when they venture out into the real world.
Our research suggests that the best calculator for the money for most students is the HP-10BII.
Finance and accounting majors might be better off with a more powerful calculator, such as the HP-17BII.
We recommend these two for people who do not already have a calculator, but we tell them that any
financial calculator that has an IRR function will do.
We also tell students that it is essential that they work lots of problems, including the end-of-
chapter problems. We emphasize that this chapter is critical, so they should invest the time now to get the
material down. We stress that they simply cannot do well with the material that follows without having this
material down cold. Bond and stock valuation, cost of capital, and capital budgeting make little sense, and
one certainly cannot work problems in these areas, without understanding time value of money first.
We base our lecture on the integrated case. The case goes systematically through the key points
in the chapter, and within a context that helps students see the real world relevance of the material in the
chapter. We ask the students to read the chapter, and also to “look over” the case before class. However,
our class consists of about 1,000 students, many of whom view the lecture on TV, so we cannot count on
them to prepare for class. For this reason, we designed our lectures to be useful to both prepared and
unprepared students.
Since we have easy access to computer projection equipment, we generally use the
PowerPoint
slides as the core of our lectures. We make these slides available to our students, and we strongly suggest
