Two interactive graphs to illustrate schematically the difference between hyperbolic and exponential (constant discount rate) discounting:

• Hyperbolic versus exponential discounting
• Hyperbolic discounting and preference reversal

These have been created as demonstrators of what can be done with simple interactive graphs. The same technique could be applied to make other graphs interactive. Email m.l.poulter@bris.ac.uk to suggest ways this could be adapted.
