Calculate Bilateral Factor



Formula

The formula to calculate the bilateral factor (BF) is:

\[ BF = (1 + r)^n + (1 + r)^{-n} \]

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the interest rate (r) is 0.05 and the number of periods (n) is 10. Using the formula:

\[ BF = (1 + 0.05)^{10} + (1 + 0.05)^{-10} \]

We get:

\[ BF \approx 1.6289 + 0.6139 \approx 2.2428 \]

So, the bilateral factor is approximately 2.2428.
