Finance, or financial management, requires the knowledge and precise use of the language of the field.

Match the terms relating to the basic terminology and concepts of the time value of money on the left with the descriptions of the terms on the right.

Perpetuity - G. A series of equal cash flows that occur at the beginning of each of the equally spaced intervals (such as daily, monthly, quarterly, and so on).
