Present Value / Future Value
This app offers a fast and easy way to compute the present value
of a stream of annual amounts at discount rates ranging from 0% to 25% in
increments of 0.125%.
The unique data entry GUI employing sliders and buttons improves upon
the more typical numeric pad mechanism. Using a slider, a plus/minus button,
and addition and subtraction buttons for small adjustment, you are able to
populate the annual cash flow fields between -1000 and +1000 quickly and
precisely.
Data entry via a numeric keypad is also available as an option with additional
functionality and the opportunity to enter larger numbers and numbers to two decimal precision.
Although periodic amounts are shown as yearly amounts, the user may
interpret these as generic periodic amounts. For example, each amount
could be considered a quarterly amount and the discount rate would be
chosen based on that frequency as well.
As an added bonus, Quick Present Value also offers the option to compute future value and to set
the number of years for computation of either present or future values.
The iPad version allows you to add, retrieve, reorder, or delete data sets. It also displays a
graph of the present value of the cash flows discounted at various rates between 0% and 25%
or a graph of the future value of cash flows compounded at various rates between 0% and 25%.
