    In particular, the present value of $100 one year in the future is $100 / (1 + ), where is the yearly interest rate. Similarly, a payment of $100 two years in the future has a present value of $100 / (1 + I {\displaystyle I} ) 2 (squared because two years' worth of interest is lost by not receiving the money right now).
