The payments are all a fixed size. For example, a car loan may be an annuity: In order to get the car, you are given a loan to buy the car. In return you make an initial payment (down payment), and then payments each month of a fixed amount. There is still an interest rate implicitly charged in the loan. The sum of all the payments will be greater than the loan amount, just as with a regular loan, but the payment schedule is spread out over time.\r\n\r\nSuppose you are the bank that makes the car loan. There are three advantages to making the loan an annuity. The first is that there is a regular, known cash flow. You know how much money you'll be getting from the loan and when you'll be getting them. The second is that it should be easier for the person you are loaning to to repay, because they are not expected to pay one large amount at once. The third reason why banks like to make annuity loans is that it helps them monitor the financial health of the debtor. If the debtor starts missing payments, the bank knows right away that there is a problem, and they could potentially amend the loan to make it better for both parties.\r\n\r\nSimilar advantages apply to the debtor. There are predictable payments, and paying smaller amounts over multiple periods may be advantageous over paying the whole loan plus interest and fees back at once.\r\n\r\nSince annuities, by definition, extend over multiple periods, there are different types of annuities based on when in the period the payments are made. The three types are:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li><em>Annuity-due:<\/em> Payments are made at the beginning of the period. For example, if a period is one month, payments are made on the first of each month.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><em>Ordinary Annuity:<\/em> Payments are made at the end of the period. If a period is one month, this means that payments are made on the 28th\/30th\/31st of each month. Mortgage payments are usually ordinary annuities.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><em>Perpetuities: <\/em>Payments continue forever. This is much rarer than the first two types.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-family: 'Cormorant Garamond', serif;font-size: 1.602em;font-weight: bold\">Future Value of Annuity<\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"boundless-concept\">\r\n\r\nThe future value of an annuity is the sum of the future values of all of the payments in the annuity.\r\n<div class=\"textbox learning-objectives\">\r\n<h3>Learning Objectives<\/h3>\r\nCalculate the future value of different types of annuities\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"textbox key-takeaways\">\r\n<h3>Key Takeaways<\/h3>\r\n<h4>Key Points<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>To find the FV, you need to know the payment amount, the interest rate of the account the payments are deposited in, the number of periods per year, and the time frame in years.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The first and last payments of an annuity due both occur one period before they would in an ordinary annuity, so they have different values in the future.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>There are different formulas for annuities due and ordinary annuities because of when the first and last payments occur.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Key Terms<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>annuity-due<\/strong>: An investment with fixed-payments that occur at regular intervals, paid at the beginning of each period.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>ordinary repair<\/strong>: expense accrued in normal maintenance of an asset.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>annuity-due<\/strong>: a stream of fixed payments where payments are made at the beginning of each period<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>ordinary annuity<\/strong>: An investment with fixed-payments that occur at regular intervals, paid at the end of each period.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\nThe future value of an annuity is the sum of the future values of all of the payments in the annuity. It is possible to take the FV of all cash flows and add them together, but this isn't really pragmatic if there are more than a couple of payments.\r\n\r\nIf you were to manually find the FV of all the payments, it would be important to be explicit about when the inception and termination of the annuity is. For an annuity-due, the payments occur at the beginning of each period, so the first payment is at the inception of the annuity, and the last one occurs one period before the termination.\r\n\r\nFor an ordinary annuity, however, the payments occur at the end of the period. This means the first payment is one period after the start of the annuity, and the last one occurs right at the end. There are different FV calculations for annuities due and ordinary annuities because of when the first and last payments occur.\r\n\r\nThere are some formulas to make calculating the FV of an annuity easier. For both of the formulas we will discuss, you need to know the payment amount (<em>m<\/em>, though often written as <em>pmt<\/em> or <em>p<\/em>), the interest rate of the account the payments are deposited in (<em>r, <\/em>though sometimes <em>i<\/em>), the number of periods per year (<em>n<\/em>), and the time frame in years (<em>t<\/em>).\r\n\r\nThe formula for an ordinary annuity is as follows:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mrow><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mtext>m<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">[<\/mo><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>r<\/mtext><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">\/<\/mi><mtext>n<\/mtext><msup><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext>nt<\/mtext><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo stretchy=\"false\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><mrow><mtext>r<\/mtext><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">\/<\/mi><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\displaystyle{\\text{A}=\\frac{\\text{m}[(1+\\text{r}\/\\text{n})^{\\text{nt}}-1]}{\\text{r}\/\\text{n}}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"katex-html\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"base\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nwhere <em>m<\/em> is the payment amount, <em>r<\/em> is the interest rate, <em>n<\/em> is the number of periods per year, and <em>t<\/em> is the length of time in years.\r\n\r\nIn contrast, the formula for an annuity-due is as follows:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mrow><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mtext>m<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">[<\/mo><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>r<\/mtext><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">\/<\/mi><mtext>n<\/mtext><msup><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mrow><mtext>nt<\/mtext><mo>+<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><\/mrow><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo stretchy=\"false\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><mrow><mtext>r<\/mtext><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">\/<\/mi><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mtext>m<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\displaystyle{\\text{A}=\\frac{\\text{m}[(1+\\text{r}\/\\text{n})^{\\text{nt}+1}-1]}{\\text{r}\/\\text{n}}-\\text{m}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nProvided you know <em>m<\/em>, <em>r<\/em>, <em>n<\/em>, and <em>t<\/em>, therefore, you can find the future value (FV) of an annuity.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"boundless-concept\">\r\n<h2>Present Value of Annuity<\/h2>\r\nThe PV of an annuity can be found by calculating the PV of each individual payment and then summing them up.\r\n<div class=\"textbox learning-objectives\">\r\n<h3>Learning Objectives<\/h3>\r\nCalculate the present value of annuities\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"textbox key-takeaways\">\r\n<h3>Key Takeaways<\/h3>\r\n<h4>Key Points<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>The PV for both annuities -due and ordinary annuities can be calculated using the size of the payments, the interest rate, and number of periods.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The PV of a perpetuity can be found by dividing the size of the payments by the interest rate.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Payment size is represented as p, pmt, or A; interest rate by i or r; and number of periods by n or t.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Key Terms<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>perpetuity<\/strong>: An annuity in which the periodic payments begin on a fixed date and continue indefinitely.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\nThe Present Value (PV) of an annuity can be found by calculating the PV of each individual payment and then summing them up.

An ordinary annuity has one full period before the first payment (so it must be discounted) and the last payment occurs at the termination of the annuity (so it must be discounted for one period more than the last period in an annuity-due).

For perpetuities, however, there are an infinite number of periods, so we need a formula to find the PV. The formula for calculating the PV is the size of each payment divided by the interest rate.\r\n<div class=\"textbox examples\">\r\n<h3>Examples<\/h3>\r\n<div class=\"boundless-concept\">\r\n<h4><strong>Example 1<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nSuppose you have won a lottery that pays $1,000 per month for the next 20 years.

Again, we are comparing the future values for both Mr. Cash and Mr. Credit, and we would like them to be the same.\r\n\r\nSince Mr. Cash is paying a lump sum of $15,000, its future value is given by the lump sum formula:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mrow><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">$<\/mi><mn>15<\/mn><mo separator=\"true\">,<\/mo><mn>000<\/mn><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">.<\/mi><mn>09<\/mn><\/mrow><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mn>60<\/mn><\/msup><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\displaystyle{ \\$ 15,000\\cdot { \\left( \\frac{1+.09}{12} \\right) }^{60}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nMr. Credit wishes to make a sequence of payments, or an annuity, of x dollars per month, and its future value is given by the annuity formula:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mfrac><mrow><mtext>x<\/mtext><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mn>0.09<\/mn><\/mrow><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mn>60<\/mn><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mrow><mfrac><mn>0.09<\/mn><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><\/mfrac><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\displaystyle{ \\frac { \\text{x}{ \\left[ { \\left( \\frac{1+0.09}{12} \\right) }^{ 60 }-1 \\right] } }{ \\frac{0.09}{12} }}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nWe set the two future amounts equal and solve for the unknown:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mrow><mn>15<\/mn><mo separator=\"true\">,<\/mo><mn>000<\/mn><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mi mathvariant=\"normal\">.<\/mi><mn>09<\/mn><\/mrow><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mn>60<\/mn><\/msup><mo>=<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mtext>x<\/mtext><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mn>0.09<\/mn><\/mrow><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mn>60<\/mn><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mrow><mfrac><mn>0.09<\/mn><mn>12<\/mn><\/mfrac><\/mfrac><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\displaystyle{15,000\\cdot { \\left( \\frac{1+.09}{12} \\right) }^{60} = \\frac { \\text{x}{ \\left[ { \\left( \\frac{1+0.09}{12} \\right) }^{ 60 }-1 \\right] } }{ \\frac{0.09}{12} }}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"latex-inline\"><math><semantics><mrow><mtext><\/mtext><mn>15<\/mn><mo separator=\"true\">,<\/mo><mn>000<\/mn><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mn>1.5657<\/mn><mo>=<\/mo><mtext>x<\/mtext><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mn>75.4241<\/mn><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\ 15,000 \\cdot 1.5657 = \\text{x} \\cdot 75.4241<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"latex-inline\"><math><semantics><mrow><mtext><\/mtext><mn>311.38<\/mn><mo>=<\/mo><mtext>x<\/mtext><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">\\ 311.38 = \\text{x}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2>Calculating Annuities<\/h2>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"boundless-concept\">\r\n\r\nUnderstanding the relationship between each variable and the broader concept of the time value of money enables simple valuation calculations of annuities.\r\n<div class=\"textbox learning-objectives\">\r\n<h3>Learning Objectives<\/h3>\r\nCalculate the present or future value of various annuities based on the information given\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"textbox key-takeaways\">\r\n<h3>Key Takeaways<\/h3>\r\n<h4>Key Points<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Annuities are basically loans that are paid back over a set period of time at a set interest rate with consistent payments each period.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>A mortgage or car loan are simple examples of an annuity. Borrowers agree to pay a given amount each month when borrowing capital to compensate for the risk and the time value of money.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The six potential variables included in an annuity calculation are the present value, the future value, interest, time (number of periods), payment amount, and payment growth (if applicable).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Through integrating each of these (excluding payment growth, if payments are consistent over time), it is simple to solve for the present of future value of a given annuity.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h4>Key Terms<\/h4>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>annuity<\/strong>: A right to receive amounts of money regularly over a certain fixed period in repayment of a loan or investment (or perpetually, in the case of a perpetuity).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h3>Annuities Defined<\/h3>\r\nTo understand how to calculate an annuity, it's useful to understand the variables that impact the calculation. An annuity is essentially a loan, a multi-period investment that is paid back over a fixed (or perpetual, in the case of a perpetuity ) \u00a0period of time. The amount paid back over time is relative to the amount of time it takes to pay it back, the interest rate being applied, and the principal (when creating the annuity, this is the present value).\r\n\r\nGenerally speaking, annuities and perpetuities will have consistent payments over time. However, it is also an option to scale payments up or down, for various reasons.\r\n<h3>Variables<\/h3>\r\nThis gives us six simple variables to use in our calculations:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Present Value (PV) - This is the value of the annuity at time 0 (when the annuity is first created)<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Future Value (FV) - This is the value of the annuity at time n (i.e. at the conclusion of the life of the annuity).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Payments (A) - Each period will require individual payments that will be represented by this amount.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Number of Payments (n) - The number of payments (A) will equate to the number of expected periods of payment over the life of the annuity.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Interest (i) - Annuities occur over time, and thus a given rate of return (interest) is applied to capture the time value of money.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Growth (g) - For annuities that have changes in payments, there is a growth rate applied to these payments over time.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h3>Calculating Annuities<\/h3>\r\nWith all of the inputs above at hand, it's fairly simply to value various types of annuities. Generally investors, lenders, and borrowers are interested in the present and future value of annuities.\r\n<h3>Present Value<\/h3>\r\nThe present value of an annuity can be calculated as follows:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>PV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mfrac><mtext>A<\/mtext><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mfrac><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mfrac><mn>1<\/mn><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><\/mfrac><\/mrow><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{PV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,{\\frac {\\text{A}}{\\text{i}}}\\cdot \\left[{1-{\\frac {1}{\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}}}}\\right]}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nFor a growth annuity (where the payment amount changes at a predetermined rate over the life of the annuity), the present value can be calculated as follows:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>PV<\/mtext><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mfrac><mtext>A<\/mtext><mrow><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mfrac><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>\u2212<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><\/mrow><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{PV}\\,=\\,{\\text{A} \\over (\\text{i}-\\text{g})}\\left[1-\\left({1+\\text{g} \\over 1+\\text{i}}\\right)^{\\text{n}}\\right]}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3>Future Value<\/h3>\r\nThe future value of an annuity can be determined using this equation:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>FV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><\/mrow><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mfrac><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{FV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,\\text{A}\\cdot {\\frac {\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}-1}{\\text{i}}}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"katex-html\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"base\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nIn a situation where payments grow over time, the future value can be determined using this equation:\r\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>FV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><\/mrow><mrow><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{FV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,\\text{A}\\cdot {\\frac {\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}-\\left(1+\\text{g}\\right)^{\\text{n}}}{\\text{i}-\\text{g}}}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"katex-html\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"base\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3>Various Formula Arrangements<\/h3>\r\nIt is also possible to use existing information to solve for missing information.

class=\"textbox key-takeaways\">\n<h3>Key Takeaways<\/h3>\n<h4>Key Points<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Annuities have payments of a fixed size paid at regular intervals.<\/li>\n<li>There are three types of annuities: annuities-due, ordinary annuities, and perpetuities.<\/li>\n<li>Annuities help both the creditor and debtor have predictable cash flows, and it spreads payments of the investment out over time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Key Terms<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>period<\/strong>: The length of time during which interest accrues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>An annuity is a type of multi- period investment where there is a certain principal deposited and then regular payments made over the course of the investment. The payments are all a fixed size. For example, a car loan may be an annuity: In order to get the car, you are given a loan to buy the car. In return you make an initial payment (down payment), and then payments each month of a fixed amount. There is still an interest rate implicitly charged in the loan. The sum of all the payments will be greater than the loan amount, just as with a regular loan, but the payment schedule is spread out over time.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose you are the bank that makes the car loan. There are three advantages to making the loan an annuity. The first is that there is a regular, known cash flow. You know how much money you&#8217;ll be getting from the loan and when you&#8217;ll be getting them. The second is that it should be easier for the person you are loaning to to repay, because they are not expected to pay one large amount at once. The third reason why banks like to make annuity loans is that it helps them monitor the financial health of the debtor. If the debtor starts missing payments, the bank knows right away that there is a problem, and they could potentially amend the loan to make it better for both parties.<\/p>\n<p>Similar advantages apply to the debtor. There are predictable payments, and paying smaller amounts over multiple periods may be advantageous over paying the whole loan plus interest and fees back at once.<\/p>\n<p>Since annuities, by definition, extend over multiple periods, there are different types of annuities based on when in the period the payments are made. The three types are:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><em>Annuity-due:<\/em> Payments are made at the beginning of the period. For example, if a period is one month, payments are made on the first of each month.<\/li>\n<li><em>Ordinary Annuity:<\/em> Payments are made at the end of the period. If a period is one month, this means that payments are made on the 28th\/30th\/31st of each month.

Borrowers agree to pay a given amount each month when borrowing capital to compensate for the risk and the time value of money.<\/li>\n<li>The six potential variables included in an annuity calculation are the present value, the future value, interest, time (number of periods), payment amount, and payment growth (if applicable).<\/li>\n<li>Through integrating each of these (excluding payment growth, if payments are consistent over time), it is simple to solve for the present of future value of a given annuity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Key Terms<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>annuity<\/strong>: A right to receive amounts of money regularly over a certain fixed period in repayment of a loan or investment (or perpetually, in the case of a perpetuity).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Annuities Defined<\/h3>\n<p>To understand how to calculate an annuity, it&#8217;s useful to understand the variables that impact the calculation. An annuity is essentially a loan, a multi-period investment that is paid back over a fixed (or perpetual, in the case of a perpetuity ) \u00a0period of time. The amount paid back over time is relative to the amount of time it takes to pay it back, the interest rate being applied, and the principal (when creating the annuity, this is the present value).<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, annuities and perpetuities will have consistent payments over time. However, it is also an option to scale payments up or down, for various reasons.<\/p>\n<h3>Variables<\/h3>\n<p>This gives us six simple variables to use in our calculations:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Present Value (PV) &#8211; This is the value of the annuity at time 0 (when the annuity is first created)<\/li>\n<li>Future Value (FV) &#8211; This is the value of the annuity at time n (i.e. at the conclusion of the life of the annuity).<\/li>\n<li>Payments (A) &#8211; Each period will require individual payments that will be represented by this amount.<\/li>\n<li>Number of Payments (n) &#8211; The number of payments (A) will equate to the number of expected periods of payment over the life of the annuity.<\/li>\n<li>Interest (i) &#8211; Annuities occur over time, and thus a given rate of return (interest) is applied to capture the time value of money.<\/li>\n<li>Growth (g) &#8211; For annuities that have changes in payments, there is a growth rate applied to these payments over time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Calculating Annuities<\/h3>\n<p>With all of the inputs above at hand, it&#8217;s fairly simply to value various types of annuities. Generally investors, lenders, and borrowers are interested in the present and future value of annuities.<\/p>\n<h3>Present Value<\/h3>\n<p>The present value of an annuity can be calculated as follows:<\/p>\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>PV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mfrac><mtext>A<\/mtext><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mfrac><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mfrac><mn>1<\/mn><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><\/mfrac><\/mrow><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{PV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,{\\frac {\\text{A}}{\\text{i}}}\\cdot \\left[{1-{\\frac {1}{\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}}}}\\right]}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>For a growth annuity (where the payment amount changes at a predetermined rate over the life of the annuity), the present value can be calculated as follows:<\/p>\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>PV<\/mtext><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mfrac><mtext>A<\/mtext><mrow><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mfrac><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">[<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>\u2212<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><\/mrow><mrow><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo fence=\"true\">]<\/mo><\/mrow><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{PV}\\,=\\,{\\text{A} \\over (\\text{i}-\\text{g})}\\left[1-\\left({1+\\text{g} \\over 1+\\text{i}}\\right)^{\\text{n}}\\right]}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Future Value<\/h3>\n<p>The future value of an annuity can be determined using this equation:<\/p>\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>FV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><\/mrow><mtext>i<\/mtext><\/mfrac><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{FV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,\\text{A}\\cdot {\\frac {\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}-1}{\\text{i}}}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"katex-html\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"base\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>In a situation where payments grow over time, the future value can be determined using this equation:<\/p>\n<div class=\"latex-displaymode\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><math display=\"block\"><semantics><mrow><mstyle scriptlevel=\"0\" displaystyle=\"true\"><mtext>FV<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">(<\/mo><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo stretchy=\"false\">)<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mo>=<\/mo><mtext><\/mtext><mtext>A<\/mtext><mo>\u22c5<\/mo><mfrac><mrow><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><mo>\u2212<\/mo><msup><mrow><mo fence=\"true\">(<\/mo><mn>1<\/mn><mo>+<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><mo fence=\"true\">)<\/mo><\/mrow><mtext>n<\/mtext><\/msup><\/mrow><mrow><mtext>i<\/mtext><mo>\u2212<\/mo><mtext>g<\/mtext><\/mrow><\/mfrac><\/mstyle><\/mrow><annotation encoding=\"application\/x-tex\">{\\displaystyle \\text{FV}(\\text{A})\\,=\\,\\text{A}\\cdot {\\frac {\\left(1+\\text{i}\\right)^{\\text{n}}-\\left(1+\\text{g}\\right)^{\\text{n}}}{\\text{i}-\\text{g}}}}<\/annotation><\/semantics><\/math><span class=\"katex-html\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"base\"><span class=\"mord\"><span class=\"vlist-s\">\u200b<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Various Formula Arrangements<\/h3>\n<p>It is also possible to use existing information to solve for missing information.
