Question 2.

Difference between Present Value and the future value of an asset - Present value of an asset is the current value of an asset which is calculated by discounting the future cash flows at a pre decided discount rate. Future value is the value of an asset on a future date. It is only value and shows the total gain on investment involving interest rate. For example, present value of a dollar is more since if it is invested today, it can earn interest over an year. The future value will be 1.10 dollar calculated on 10 % interest rate.

Opportunity cost is the cost of an item or activity which is forgone as a result of tradeoff between two or more choices. An example is if a person chooses an online coaching to upgrade skills instead of vacation, the opportunity cost is the vacation of choosing the other alternative. It is the relative cost that is incurred to get an item and giving up the other item.

The maximum amount to pay for an asset that generates an income of $ 1000 at the end of each of the two years when the opportunity cost of using funds is 5 percent can be calculated as below :-

Present Value = ( 2000/1+.05) + (2000/(1+0.05)*2) = 5909

rate of return is 5 percent and 2 is the number of years, $ 2000 is the total future value of the asset at the end of two years.
