We ve defined value creation in terms of a positive trade-off of cash generated versus cash given up when making investment operating and financing decisions. We ve also made the point that the cash flows involved in most decisions have a future dimension. To properly analyze the implications of a decision therefore we need to understand how to measure at a given point in time future cash flows and their value to the decision maker. The techniques and indicators required for this purpose are relatively straightforward due to their basic mathematical nature involving discounting and compounding methodologies although their application and especially the interpretation of results require a deeper understanding of the context of the decision and the many judgments involved in developing the estimates and implications of the underlying data and the cash flows expected. The various techniques we ll discuss are fundamental to financial economic decisions whether these are made in a corporate context in the financial markets or by individuals dealing with investments or financial instruments of various kinds. In this chapter we ll concentrate first on defining the basic concepts underlying the time value of money. Then we ll provide a review of the common components involved in structuring the pattern of investment analyses in the business setting followed by a discussion of the major techniques and indicators employed in the economic analysis of cash flows. We ll illustrate the techniques by using simple examples. In Chapter 8 we ll focus on the broader context of business investment decisions identify the issues and complexities encountered and provide numerous illustrations of more complex cases. We ll discuss
