present value

listen to the pronunciation of present value
English - English
present worth (of a sum payable in the future) calculated by deducting interest that will accrue between the present and future date
(Ticaret) The estimated current value of a future receipt or payment, as calculated by the assumed interest rate between the current date and the date the future transaction will occur

net present value
A capital budgeting approach in which the present value of expected future cash inflows is subtracted from the present value of outflows to determine the "net" present value
net present value
The future stream of benefits and costs converted into equivalent values today This is done by assigning monetary values to benefits and costs, discounting future benefits and costs using an appropriate discount rate, and subtracting the sum total of discounted costs from the sum total of discounted benefits [GAO]
net present value
The difference between the present value of the cash flows and the amount of equity required to make an investment
net present value
For an asset, the present value of cash flow less the initial investment
net present value

net present value
The value in today’s dollars of net benefits realized over time from a specific investment This value changes with variations in the discount rate
net present value
a method which discounts all the cash inflows and outflows over the life of the project to their present value The choice of discount rate reflects the cost of capital (see also: Discounted Cash Flow; Discount Rate; Internal Rate of Return)
net present value
Method used in comparably evaluating investments in very dissimilar projects by discounting the current and projected future cash inflows and outflows back to the present value based on the discount rate, or cost of capital, of the firm
net present value
The NPV equals the present value of the cash inflows minus the present value of the cash outflows with the cost of capital used as a discount rate This method is used to evaluate capital budgeting projects If the NPV is positive, a project should be accepted
net present value
this is a value calculated in cost benefit analysis The NPV discounts all the cash inflows (income) and outflows (payments) over the life of the project to their present day value The choice of discount rate reflects the cost of capital (see also: Time Value of Money; Discounted Cash Flow; Discount Rate; Internal Rate of Return)
net present value
NPV establishes what the value of future earnings is in today's money To do the calculation you apply a discount % rate to the future earnings The further out the earnings are (in years) the more reduced the net present value
net present value
The present value of a series of cash flows generated by an investment, minus the initial investment NPV is calculated because of the important concept that "money today is worth more than the same money tomorrow "
net present value
- the current value of net benefits (benefits minus costs) that occur over time A discount rate is used to reduce future benefits and costs to their present time equivalent
net present value
The difference between the present value of the benefit stream and the present value of the cost stream for a project The net present value calculated at the Banks discount rate should be greater than zero for a project to be acceptable
net present value
The estimated change in the value of the firm that would occur if a project is accepted based on subtracting the present value of the inflows from the present value of the outflows
net present value
current value of future income less future expenses with the deduction of compound interest, npv (Accounting)
net present value
The present value of the expected future cash flows minus the cost
net present value
The value of the future stream of benefits from an investment discounted to the present by means of a discount rate (or interest rate) The discount rate should reflect the opportunity cost of the resources devoted to the investment - what the resources could have earned if they had been invested elsewhere
net present value
The value, in today's dollars, of a series of costs and incomes over a time period that have been discounted to the present using a chosen discount interest rate If the NPV is positive, the investment would earn a profit after repaying the interest costs (based on the chosen interest rate) If the NPV is negative the investment will not earn a sufficient profit to pay the chosen interest rate
net present value
(NPV) A project's net contribution to shareholders wealth, which is determined by the present value of a project's cash flows less initial investment
