Present and Future Value
Future value is the value of an asset at a specific date, assuming a certain interest rate or, more generally, rate of return.
The future value equals the present value times the sum of 1 and the interest rate divided by the compounding frequency taken to the power of the compounding frequency times the interest periods.
