future payment streams.
• Mathematically, the present value of a payment
is
=(payment)/(1+r)n
Where
r is the interest rate
n is the number of years until the
payment is received/made.

Mortgages, Car Payments,
and other Multiple-Payment Examples
• Mortgages are loans taken out to buy homes.
Typically you borrow a large sum of money
and promise to pay it back in even amounts
each month for 10, 15, or 30 years.
• Car loans are similar to mortgages in that
you borrow a large sum but the loan duration
is usually two to six years.

Rule of 72
• Rule of 72: A short cut that allows you
to estimate the time it would take for an
investment to double by dividing 72 by
the annual interest rate.
• For example: How long would it take to
double your money ($10,000) at 4%
interest?
• FV formula: $10,000x(1.04)^18=$20,258.17 (so
a little less than 18 years is the answer).
• Rule of 72: 72/4=18 years
