    Study Notes

    Time Value of Money

    • Time value of money (TVM) is the concept that money available today is worth more than the identical sum in the future due to its potential earning capacity.
    • P100,000 today is worth more than P100,000 received in two years.
    • TVM allows you to determine which investment options provide the most optimal rate of return given the timeframe of an investment.

    Future Value Formula

    • Future Value = Present Value x (1 + interest rate)^ (number of years x number of compounding periods per year)
    • PV: Present value of money
    • i: Interest rate or return
    • t: Number of years
    • n: Number of compounding periods of interest per year

    Example of TVM

    • Investing P100,000 at a 20% annual interest rate, compounded monthly for 2 years.
    • Future Value = 148,691.46
    • This means P100,000 today will be worth 148,691.46 in two years. Forgoing the investment over that timeframe would mean forgoing P48,691.47 in interest.

    Revenue Generation Models

    • Personal Investment: Individuals invest in financial instruments like stocks, bonds, real estate, etc.
    • Love Money: Money given to loved ones, repaid as business profits increase.
    • Venture Capital: Wealthy investors finance startups with potential long-term growth in exchange for company shares.
    • Angels: Wealthy individuals (or executives) invest directly in startups, offering expertise and managerial support.
    • Crowdfunding: Businesses raise money from the general public in exchange for equity in the company.
    • Business Incubators: Startups share spaces, resources, and networks with established businesses to help them grow faster.
    • Grants and Subsidies: Government funds for businesses to offset operating costs.
    • Loans: Funds provided by lenders to businesses, typically with terms and conditions.

    Basic Pricing Strategies

    • Price is a critical factor in influencing consumer choice, requiring careful consideration of the business, market competition, brand positioning and target market.
    • Price selection involves a series of steps:
      • Identifying the pricing objective.
      • Evaluating customer perception of value.
      • Ensuring customer confidence
      • Establishing a demand curve (Price vs Demand).

    Pricing Methods

    • Markup pricing: Adding a standard markup to the cost of the product to determine the selling price.
    • Target-return pricing: Determining the price at which target rate of return on investment is achieved
    • Perceived-value pricing: Setting prices based on the customer’s perceived value of the product, considering quality, service and other intangible attributes
