Nominal vs. Real Interest Rates • Nominal Interest Rate: the advertised rate of interest • Real Interest Rate: the rate of interest after inflation expectations are accounted for; the compensation for waiting on consumption
Present Value • Present Value is the interest adjusted value of 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.
The Amount Payable for Every Dollar Borrowed (For several interest rates and loan durations)
Examples From This Table • If you borrow $1 and promise to pay it back in 5 years at 5% interest you will owe $1.28 which is the original $1 plus 28 cents in interest. • If you borrow $1 and promise to pay it back in 30 years at 20% interest you will owe $237.38 which is the original $1 plus $236.38 in interest.
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.
A Multiple Year Example Suppose you pay $100 for the first 5 years then receive $100 for the next 7 years. The present value of the can be depicted in the picture below. For instance the present value of the $100 paid in the fifth year is $100/(1.10)4 or $68.30.
Monthly Payments Required on per $1000 of loan(For Several Interest Rates and Loan Durations)
