Time Value Of An Option

The value of an option based on the expiration date. Example: An option to purchase property would be worth less if it expires in one week than it would be if it expires in one year, even though the price and terms are the same. The reasoning is that the value of the property has a better chance to increase in a year than in a week, making the one year option a better deal.
