Time Value of Money
Money has a time value because it can earn
more money over time (earning power).
Money has a time value because its

Interest is the cost of money, a cost to
the borrower and a profit to the
lender.
Time value of money is measured in

power in the financial market.

End-of-Period Convention
Convention: Any cash flows occurring
during the interest period are summed to a
single amount and placed at the end of the
interest period.
Logic: This convention allows financial
institutions to make interest calculations
easier.

Methods of Calculating Interest
Simple interest: Charging an interest rate only to an initial sum (principal amount)
Compound interest: Charging an interest rate to an initial sum and to any previously
accumulated interest that has not been withdrawn
Note: Unless otherwise mentioned, all interest rates used in engineering economic analyses are compound interest rates.

Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway
Went public in 1965: $18 per share
Worth today (May 29, 2015): $214,800 per share
Annual compound growth: 20.65%
Current market value: $179.5 billion
If his company continues to grow at the current
pace, what will be his company’s total market
value when he reaches 100? (He is 85 years old as
Assume that the company’s stock
of 2015.)
will continue to appreciate at an annual rate
of 20.65% for the next 15 years. The stock price per share at his 100
birthday would be
F = 214,800(1 + 0.2065)

Example 3.2: Comparing Simple with Compound Interest
In 1626, American Indians sold Manhattan Island to Peter Minuit of the Dutch West Company for $24.
Given: If they saved just $1 from the proceeds in a bank account that paid 8% interest, how much would
their descendents have in 2010?
Find: As of 2015, the total U.S. population would be close to 308 million. If the total sum would be
distributed equally among the population, how much would each person receive?
