How much is the price of a perpetuity paying $1000 per year, if the discount rate is 8.0% and its first payment is in 3 years?
Value as on year 3 = Annual inflows / Interest rate = $1,000 / 0.08 = $12,500
Value of this perpetuity today = Value as on year 3 / (1 + r)^2
Value of this perpetuity today = $12,500 / (1 + 0.08)^2
Value of this perpetuity today = $10,716.74
