Future Value (FV)

The value of a current asset at a specified date in the future, assuming a certain interest rate. Calculated as FV = PV × (1 + r)^n for compound interest.

Future value answers “what will this be worth later?” by compounding a present amount forward at an assumed rate. It is the mirror image of present value and the foundation of every retirement and savings-goal projection.
