PRESENT VALUE: The amount of money today that, after interest is added, would have the same value as an amount some time in the future. For example, $100 today, given a 10 percent interest rate, would have a value of $110 in one year ($100 plus $10 in interest). Conversely, $110 in one year, given a 10 percent interest rate, would be equivalent to $100 today. The process of translating a future payment into its present value, such an amount to be received when a bond reaches its date of maturity, is often termed discounting.

- A definition:
- Price elasticity of supply is the relative response of quantity supplied to changes in supply price.
- The price elasticity of supply is the percentage change in quantity supplied resulting from a percentage change in supply price.
- And like demand elasticity can be separated into the five alternatives, so too can supply.
- These five alternatives -- perfectly elastic, relatively elastic, unit elastic, relatively inelastic, and perfectly inelastic are presented in this table.

EXCHANGE RATE POLICIES Policies undertaken by domestic governments often in conjunction with international financial organizations to control exchange rates through foreign exchange markets. The three most common exchange rate policies are flexible exchange rates, fixed exchange rates, and managed flexible exchange rates. Flexible exchange rates are allowed to adjust through unrestrained forces of demand and supply in the foreign exchange market. Fixed exchange rates are established at a given level. Managed flexible exchange rates are allowed to change within boundaries, but subject to control if they change too much.
