5. NPV =???R-C)/(l+r)

где? – сумма от 0 до бесконечнлсти; NPV – чистая текущая стоимость (Net Present Value); r – норма учетной ставки (discount rate); t – время (time); R – доходы (returns); С – издержки (costs).

6. При капитализме противоречие между потреблением и инвестированием разрешается путем приведения норм (процентов) временного предпочтения к равновесию с банковской ставкой процента. Если банковская ставка составляет 10%, то любой индивидуум с нормой временного предпочтения ниже 10% может повысить свою чистую текущую стоимость будущих потребительских товаров, если станет делать сбережения, не потребляя сегодня, и тем самым сможет потребить на 10% больше год спустя. Каждый такой индивидуум продолжает делать сбережения до тех пор, пока соотношение между текущим и ожидаемым будущим потреблением не поднимет его личную норму временного предпочтения до 10% – банковской ставки процента. В этот момент он максимизирует чистую текущую стоимость будущих потребительских товаров и больше не будет заинтересован в сокращении текущего потребления с целью увеличения будущего потребления.

С другой стороны, если нормы прибыли от новых инвестиций ниже процента временного предпочтения для некоторых потребителей, последние увеличат свое потребление (и с этой целью сократят сбережения и возьмут заем), чтобы опять же увеличить чистую совокупную стоимость своего потребления.

Сегодняшнее потребление для них стоит больше, чем потребление в будущем, когда им придется возвращать долги. Если банковская процентная ставка составляет 10%, то для любого индивидуума с нормой временного предпочтения ниже 10% благоразумно занимать денежные средства, чтобы поднять текущее потребление. Он будет поступать так до тех пор, пока его текущее потребление не станет настолько велико относительно будущего потребления, что его индивидуальный процент временного предпочтения упадет до 10% В этот момент он опять же максимизирует свою чистую текущую стоимость потребительских товаров за время жизни.

Если людей с нормами временного предпочтения ниже 10% много, то их общие сбережения снизят процентную ставку. Наоборот, если у многих норма временного предпочтения выше 10%, их дополнительное потребление повысит банковскую процентную ставку. То же самое справедливо для инвесторов. Благодаря инвесторам, которым требуются денежные средства на финансирование проектов, приносящих больше 10% дохода, банковская процентная ставка повысится; прекращение инвестиций, приносящих меньше 10% дохода, понизит ее. Оптимум капиталистических вложений достигается, когда процентная ставка такова, что ни у кого нет стимула изменять ни объем своего потребления, ни объем инвестиций.
