present value

Current monetary equivalent

Present value is what a future sum of money is worth today, accounting for the time value of money—the principle that a dollar now is worth more than a dollar later because it can be invested.

Financial analysts discount future cash flows to present value to compare investments: The present value of those payments is about $50,000.

The calculation depends on the discount rate applied.
