Abstract

The time value of money is the most fundamental concept in business and attests that money is worth more in the present than in the future as current money can be used immediately to fund opportunities that may not be available in the future. Additionally, because money earns interest, and because interest compounds over time, the present value of money is greater than the future value. This chapter will discuss the time value of money as it applies to financing a medical education.
