We can now compute the value in current dollars for an amount of money to be received at any point in the future, as long as interest rates don't change. Suppose there is an asset which will earn the owner $1000 in 4 years, but nothing until then. Suppose the interest rate is 10% and you anticipate that it will remain unchanged during that time. How much is the asset worth today?
