Present Value Essentials
Time Value of Money
$1 today is worth more than $1 tomorrow — interest and inflation.
PV Formula
PV = FV / (1 + r)^n — discount future cash to today.
Discount Rate
Higher rate = lower PV. Reflects risk and opportunity cost.
DCF Foundation
Sum of discounted future cash flows = enterprise value.
