Q

ordinary annuity:
Kate is entitled to a retirement income stream which pays her $30,000 per annum for next 20 years. Assume interest rate is 10% per annum and the first payment is in one year. How much is this income stream worth in terms of PV?
Kate’s income stream matches the definition of ordinary annuity (periodic identical amount at the end of each period).

A
[2ndF] [CA] (clear up memory)
30,000 	[PMT] (annuity)
10	[I/Y] (r in %)
20 	[N] (# of periods)
0 	[FV] (0 future value)
[COMP]	[PV] (compute PV)
Display 	-255,406.91

= 255,406.91

How to interpret this present value, 255,406.91?
It is equivalent to those 20 annual payments @ 10% interest rate (discount rate).
Kate is indifferent from a) to receive $255,406.91 NOW or b) $30,000 p.a. at year-end for the next 20 years.
It also implies the financial institution promising her the income stream must have at least $255,406.91 under Kata’s name NOW.
If interest rate were 8%, should the financial institution have more or less money under Kata’s name

Q

Sam receives a constant stream of cash flows worth $1,000 each year to infinity with the first payment made in one year. What is the present value of this income stream if the interest rate is 10% p.a.?
First payment is made in one year, PMT = 1,000

A

pv = pmt / r

pv = 1000/0.10 = 10,000

Q

explaina growing perpertuity

Cash flows grow at a constant speed (rate) and continue perpetually.
CFk+1 = CFk × (1 + g)
Similar to perpetuity, growing perpetuity has no FV.
