Present Value (PV) formula doubt
Submitted by YogSam on Thu, 02/19/2015 - 13:29
PV = FV / (1+r) to the power of n
r is the interest rate and n is the number of period.
What if the n is 1 year and interest rate is given as 10% semiannually.
Do we take these values as is and use in the above formula
OR
we do some modifications as the preiod (n) is given as yearly and interest (r) is given as semianually.
Thanks

If it's semiannually@10%, then it will be
PV = FV / (1+5%) to the power of 2
