The session opened with an introduction to the core principle of finance — that a sum of money available today holds greater value than the same sum received in the future, owing to its earning potential. Facilitators walked participants through the fundamental building blocks of the Time Value of Money, including present value, future value, compounding, and discounting, using simple, relatable examples to demystify the underlying mathematics. Participants were introduced to key formulas used to calculate present and future values, and the practical relevance of these concepts was reinforced through real-life scenarios such as savings, loans, and investment planning. The interactive format encouraged students to work through sample problems, ask questions, and engage in discussion, helping translate theoretical understanding into applied financial thinking. The activity also touched upon why TVM forms the basis of several advanced financial tools and decisions, including investment appraisal, loan amortization, and retirement planning, giving participants a glimpse into how foundational this concept is across the field of finance.
