You invest $100 today. With positive interest rates, the concept of future value implies that the future value of your $100 will be ____ $100.

"greater than": If interest rates are positive, $100 given to you today will be worth more than $100 in the future (for example, if the interest rate is 5%, your $100 will be worth $100 x (1 + .05)1 = $105 in one year.

"Less than": The sum of those cash flows is $600, so if you deposited $600 today at a positive interest rate and withdrew the series of payments described, there would be money left in the account at the end because of accumulated interest. So you would need to deposit less than $600, which means the present value is less than $600.
