The time value of money (TVM) is the idea that money available at the present time is worth more than the same amount in the future due to its potential earning capacity. This core principle of finance holds that, provided money can earn interest, any amount of money is worth more the sooner it is received. ("Time Value of Money (TVM) Definition | Investopedia," n.d.)
The time value of money (TVM) is an important concept to investors because a dollar on hand today is worth more than a dollar promised in the future; the dollar on hand today can be used to invest and earn interest or capital gains. A dollar promised in the future is actually worth less than a dollar today because of inflation. ("Why is the time value of money (TVM) an important concept to investors? | Investopedia," n.d.)

In addition, because of money's potential to increase in value over time, you can use the time value of money to calculate how much you need to invest now to meet a certain future goal. Many financial websites and personal investment handbooks help you calculate these amounts based on different interest rates. ("Time value of money financial definition of time value of money,"

Time value of money (TVM) is a monetary concept that is very important to all parts of the financial world. This concept basically says that $100 today is worth more than $100 a year from now (or anytime in the future). Also, an individual should earn some value of compensation for not spending their money. This compensation is essentially called the interest that will be earned on the initial cash. What about when an individual opts to receive money in the future rather than today? That can lead to problems. This is because they are taking a gamble by loaning money- since there is almost always risk in loaning money. A couple of these risks include inflation and default risk. Default risk means that the person who borrowed the money does not repay the money to the person that loaned it. Inflation means that the general prices of products will rise. How does all this work? In theory the person that gets the $100 today could invest it, even at a very low annual percentage rate (APR), and still come out ahead. If they invest it at 2% APR, they would have $102 at the end of one year. Th...

The greatest question many have sought to answer is the creation vs. evolution debate. How did we get here? Were we created or did we evolve randomly? Are we the product of purposeful intelligence or are we the result of countless mistakes? Does it even matter? The story of money is similar to the story of humanity. Was money created or did it evolve. If it was created we can assume it will die. If money evolved then we can assume the future is unknown. In his book, The Ascent of Money a financial history of the world, Neil Ferguson historic analysis of money answers many of these questions. Ferguson believes money essentially mirrors mankind, magnifying back to us our progress, failures, values and weaknesses.” (The Ascent of Money, 358) The history of money shares many similarities to the history of man; Ferguson parallels between finance and Darwinism, illustrating the natural mechanism of our financial ecosystem that evolves, creates, competes, and dies.

One might know that time is one of the most valuable assets in our lives. In the financial world the value of money is linked to time, primarily because investors expect progressive returns on their cash over periods of time, and they always compare the return from certain investments with the going or average returns in the market. Inflation on other hand erodes the purchasing power of money causing future value of one dollar to be less than the present value of a dollar. This paper will examine time value of money and the applications that determine successes or failures. An examination of the different vehicles that can be used to generate financial security for corporations and individuals will be provided. After defining the applications that generalize time value of money, an explanation will be offered regarding the components of interest rates by expanding on the concept that interest rate equates the future value of money with present value.
