Question:

a. What is the present value of annuity of $3,000 per year, with the first cash flow received four years from today and the last one received 22 years from today if the discount rate is 8%?

b. What is the future value of an annuity of $5,000 per year, with the first cash flow being received today and lasting for 10 years (10 total payments of $4,000) if the interest rate is 8% annual.

Answer:

a) This is a “delayed annuity” case

0 1 2 3 4 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 2122 3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000 $3000

Number of payments = 19, PMT = $3,000

r = 8%

PV at end of year 3:

\small PV = PMT * [\frac{1 - 1/(1+r)^n}{r}]

PV3 = $28,810.797

PV0 = PV3 * (1.08)-3 = $22,870.94

Therefore, PV of the delayed annuity = $22,870.94

b) This is an ‘annuity due’ problem because the first cash flow is received today. In ‘annuity due’ payments or receipts occur at the beginning of each period.

Formula for FV:

\small FV = PMT * \frac{(1+r)^n - 1}{r} * (1+r)

FV = 5000 * (1.08^10 -1)/0.08 * 1.08 = $78,227.44
