What is the importance of time value of money for investors, business people and individuals?

[Suba]

We often interpret time as money, so the value of the money we have now is more valuable than the value in the future. For example, if we have $100 worth of money, it will be worth more than $100 next year because of the decline in the value of money due to inflation. Investors and business people must be able to know how to calculate the time value of money to predict the returns that will be obtained, especially by paying attention to interest rates and capital gains factors. So in principle, for investors, business people or individuals, whatever the value of money (USD) is, the more valuable it is the sooner we receive it. So the basis of the time value of money refers to cateris paribus, so we are better off having money now than later.
