Risk is the possibility of an “event
occurring” that will have an impact
on the achievement of objectives.

“Risk” is present when future
There are two main ways to identify
events occur with measurable
risk:
probability.
• Retrospectively
“Probability” is the likelihood that a
particular incident will occur.
• Prospectively.
“Uncertainty” is the range of
“possible outcomes” of an event.

Why Money Has Time Value? Why Money Has Time Value?
1. No Risk: 3. Opportunity cost :
There is no risk of getting money back that you
already have today. A dollar received today can be invested now to
earn interest, resulting in a higher value in the
2. Higher Purchasing Power: future.
Because of inflation, $100,000 can be exchanged In contrast, a dollar received in the future can
for more goods and services today than not begin earning interest until it is received.
$100,000 in 100 years. This lost opportunity to earn interest is the
opportunity cost.
Put another way, just think back to what
$100,000 could buy you 100 years ago. $100,000 So, Time Value of Money into two fundamental

Sooner is better than later.

Example Net Present Value (NPV)
The formula can also be rearranged to
find the value of the future sum in present
day dollars. Net Present Value (NPV), is

The Net Present Value (NPV) Concept says :
• Accept all projects whose NPV is +ive or NPV > 0 .
• Drop all projects with NPV < 0
• If NPV = 0, we are indifferent between accepting or
dropping the project.
• The NPV method can be used to select between
projects. The one with the higher NPV should be
selected.
