Future Value Formula

The future value of an investment can be calculated using the following formula:

Future Value (FV) = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t)

Where:

  • P = Principal amount (initial investment)
  • r = Annual interest rate (in decimal)
  • n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
  • t = Time the money is invested for (in years)

This formula accounts for compound interest, which means your investment grows not just on the initial principal but also on the accumulated interest over time.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Annual Compounding

Suppose you invest ₱10,000 at an annual interest rate of 5% for 10 years with annual compounding.

FV = ₱10,000 × (1 + 0.05/1)^(1×10) = ₱10,000 × (1.05)^10 ≈ ₱16,288.94

After 10 years, your investment will grow to approximately ₱16,288.94.

Example 2: Monthly Compounding

Invest ₱5,000 at an annual interest rate of 6% for 5 years with monthly compounding.

FV = ₱5,000 × (1 + 0.06/12)^(12×5) = ₱5,000 × (1.005)^60 ≈ ₱6,431.76

With monthly compounding, your investment will grow to approximately ₱6,431.76 after 5 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the future value of money?

The future value of money is the amount that a current sum of money will grow to in the future, taking into account the effect of compound interest.

How does compound interest affect future value?

Compound interest means that interest is added to the principal each period, and future interest is calculated on this new amount. This leads to exponential growth over time.

What is the difference between simple and compound interest?

Simple interest is calculated only on the original principal, while compound interest is calculated on the principal and also on the accumulated interest of previous periods.
