Thus, for a given r and earnings per period X (= V0) we can draw out a curve V0ert which can be conceived as an "isovalue" curve, i.e. a series of combinations of V0ert and t which yield the same present value V0. As time increases, total earnings increase so that V0ert increases. Thus, the isovalue curve is upward sloping and convex.
