Time value of money multiply the PV of an ordinary annuity by (1 + "i"). The following formula use these common variables: The future value ("FV") formula is similar and uses the same variables. The present value formula is the core formula for the time value of money; each of the other formulae is derived from this formula. For example, the annuity formula is the sum of a series of present value calculations. The present value ("PV") formula has four variables, each of which can be solved for by numerical methods: The cumulative present value of future cash flows can be calculated by summing
