$$ Future Value of a single sum $>>$ FV$=$ PV $(1+$i$)$n

$$ Present Value of a single sum $>>$ PV$=$ FV $(1+$i$)-$n

$$ Future Value of an ordinary annuity $>>$ FVOA $=$ A $(((1+$i$)$n $-1)/$i$)$

$$ Present Value of an ordinary annuity $>>$ PVOA $=$ A$((1-(1/(1+$i$)$n$))/$i$))$

$$ Present Value of an annuity due $>>$ PVAD $=$ A $(1+((1-1/(1+$i$)$n$-1)/$i$))$

$$ Present Value of perpetual Annuity $>>$ PVpA $=$ A$/$i

Fundamental Variables

$$ i $$ Interest rate per period $($month$)$

$$ n $$ Number of time periods $($months$)$

$$ FV $$ Future value
