Assessing a Potential Investment in Facebook
Under the concept of time value, money today is worth more than the same amount in the future (Nellis and Parker, 2006). This is over time, inflation will erode the value of money and in a years time $100 will buy less than it will buy today. If Facebook is offering a $100,000 bond, for one year, the investor, wanting to make a profit and account for the money that could be made elsewhere, will offer less that the face value.

Significance of the Study This study is significant because it sheds light on a very important contributor to local and international trade.
