Quantity
time value of money
interest rate
Three ways to understand interest rates
required rate of return
Required rate of return refers to the minimum rate of return required by investors when investing
Discount Rate
The discount rate is the interest rate used to discount future cash flows
Opportunity Cost
Opportunity cost refers to the benefits that investors give up after choosing an investment (opportunity cost is not the real cost)
The composition of interest rates
Interest rate = real risk-free interest rate, inflation premium, default risk premium, liquidity risk premium, term risk premium
Real Risk-Free Interest Rate
The real risk-free interest rate refers to the rate of return on risk-free assets in a single period without taking expected inflation into account.
Nominal interest rate ≈ real interest rate expected inflation rate
Inflation Premium
Inflation premium refers to the portion of the premium used to compensate for the expected rate of inflation
Default Risk Premium
The default risk premium compensates investors for the default risk borne by the borrower, which is the risk that the borrower will not be able to make cash flows as contracted when due.
The borrower here is a broad concept, not only referring to bonds, but also including the party that needs to pay cash flow in asset transactions such as stocks and derivatives.
Liquidity Premium
Liquidity risk premium refers to the risk that assets cannot be quickly realized at fair market value in the short term.
Liquidity risk does not refer to the risk of not being able to sell, but the risk of being forced to sell at a discount due to rapid liquidation in the short term.
Maturity Premium
Maturity refers to the time until the principal is due to be paid.
Interest rates for different interest calculation methods
Simple Interest and Compounding Interest
Simple interest: only interest is charged on the principal, and the interest paid in each interest calculation period = principal * period interest rate
Compound interest: After each interest calculation cycle, the interest from the previous period must be added to the principal before interest is calculated (interest compounding)
Quoted interest rate and effective annual interest rate
Quoted Interest Rate (Stated Annual Interest Rate/Quoted Interest Rate)
The annual interest rate provided by the financial institution when quoting interest (the number of times the annual interest rate is calculated each year must be stated) (the quoted interest rate is not the investor’s real interest rate income within one year)
According to the quoted interest rate and the number of interest calculations, the periodic interest rate can be calculated = quoted interest rate / number of interest calculations in one year.
Effective Annual Rate (EAR)
EAR refers to the total interest income earned per unit of currency in 1 year
EAR=(1 interest period interest rate)^m-1=(1 rs/m)^m-1
rs is the quoted interest rate; m is the number of interest calculations within one year.
If the number of interest calculations within a year tends to be infinite, the formula for continuous compounding can be obtained (during the exam, continuous compounding is the maximum effective annual interest rate. Wrong options can be quickly eliminated through continuous compounding)
EAR=e^rs-1
present value and future value
The relationship between present value and future value
FV=PV*(1 r)^n
PV=FV/(1 r)^n
n represents the number of interest accrual periods, r represents the interest rate during the interest accrual period
law
Given the interest rate level r, FV increases as the number of interest calculation periods n increases.
Given the number of periods n, FV rises as the interest rate level rises
In a given time period, the greater the interest rate level r, the smaller the present value PV
annuity
Broadly speaking, it refers to a series of cash flows that are paid in equal amounts and regularly.
Ordinary Annuity
An equal amount of annuity is paid at the end of each period
Annuity Due
Annuity paid at the beginning of each period
Perpetuity Annuity
The annuity is paid indefinitely, and the payment time is at the end of each period.
The present value and future value of irregular cash flow (unequal cash flow)
Refers to a series of cash flows with varying cash flows in each period. The basic principles of cash flow discounting can be used to calculate the pv and fv of cash flows.
