It can be used to study for Actuarial Exam FM, and (hopefully) used on the job for projects where time value of money is relevant.

Installation

pip install tmval

or

git clone https://github.com/genedan/TmVal

Examples

Define an amount function that pays 25% simple interest per period:

import tmval

def f(k, t):
    return k + 250 * t

my_amt = tmval.Amount(f, k=1000)

Check the value at time t=4

my_amt.val(t=4)
Out[3]: 2000

Check the interest earned during the first 5 periods:

my_amt.interest_earned(t1=0, t2=5)
Out[4]: 1250

Check the interest rate between times t=0 and t=1:

my_amt.effective_rate(1)
Out[6]: 0.25

The above example can also be constructed with a special subclass, SimpleAmt, representing the simple interest amount function:

my_simple = tmval.SimpleAmt(k=1000, s=.25)
my_simple.val(t=4)
my_simple.interest_earned(t1=0, t2=5)
my_simple.effective_rate(1)
