Which of the following is the multi-period formula for compounding a present value into a future value?
FV = PV × (1 + r)t
Which of the following is the correct formula for calculating the present value of a future amount, expected in t years at r percent interest?
PV = FV/(1 + r)t
To calculate the future value of $100 invested for t years at r interest rate, you enter the present value in your calculator as a negative number. Why?
because the $100 is an outflow from you which should be negative
