Why do we need to calculate the present value of future


Why do we need to calculate the present value of future earnings? 
A company can invest $100,000 to develop a new system, or it can put that amount into a second best alternative investment getting 10 percent in interest per year. In the second year, it can gain a benefit of $11,000 if it builds the new system now. If the company decides to build the new system, what will be the present value of that $11,000?
