DoublePresent Value
Assume that A gives $100 cash to B. B returns the same amount to A in 1 year.
Banks give 5% annual rate, therefore present value of this $100 dollar
returned is going to be $95.24 - A lost $4.76, because B did not pay any interest and
A could have deposited $100 in regular bank instead of giving it to B.
Had A charged B 5% interest rate , A would have made money.
