Time Value of Money, Opportunity Cost, and Income Taxes Worksheet

Scenario 1: Time Value of Money / Cash Management Products

1.

Use this Bankrate’s Simple Savings calculator to complete Scenario 1:
http://www.bankrate.com/calculators/savings/simple-savings-calculator.aspx. You will enter
the Initial Amount of Savings (Present Value), Annual Interest Rate (Rate of Return), and
Number of Periods/Years into the calculator. The calculator will compute the Future Values.
In this scenario you will look at the impact of interest rates on your savings. Suppose that you
have $2,000 of savings. You don’t anticipate needing to dip into these funds in the next five
years. Based on the information provided in the table, calculate the future value (FV) of
$2,000 at the end of years 1 and 5 if it were to be completely invested in each of the different
cash management products.
Enter your answers in the indicated cells of the table below. The Restrictions/Fees on Product
