Question 237755
$10 million in 50 years is worth about $85,185 today.


Present worth of $1 million annual payments compounded at 10% annually over the next 50 years is worth $9,914,814 today.


The combined value today would be worth $9,829,629.


That's 9 million 829 thousand 629 dollars.


That amount of money, if invested for the next 50 years at 10% interest compounded annually, would be worth $1,153,908,589.


That's 1 billion 153 million 908 thousand 589 dollars.


The present worth of future money assumes that the money can be invested at the discount rate.


$10 million doesn't sound like a lot today, but in 50 years it sure adds up to a lot of money if invested at the discount rate.
