Suppose the interest rate is always 5.3%. Your grandparents deposit $542,832 at a bank for you. The bank agrees that starting 15 years from now you and or offspring can withdraw a fixed amount of cash each year forever. Find the amount of the yearly cash flow.
Calculation of perpetual annual cash flow:
First we shall calculate the value of deposit at the end of year 14th(last year before Annual cash inflow).
Future value = Amount deposited(1+Interest rate)^no. of years
= $542,832(1+0.053)^14
= $542,832*2.0606166
= $1,118,568.64
This amount is present value of annual cash flow, thus
Present value = Perpetual annual cash flow/Interest rate
$1,118,568.64 = Perpetual cash flow/0.053
Perpetual cash flow = $1,118,568.64*0.053
= $59,284.14
Thus, amount of yearly cash flow is $59,284.14.
Thus, amount of yearly cash flow is $59,284.14.
