1)Annuity due means an annuity the payment of which gets due immediately at the beginning of each period. On the other hand, under an ordinary annuity, payments are made at the end of each period. Due to this reason, annuity due proves to be more beneficial for the recipients because they can utilize the funds faster. In simple words, persons who pay annuity due do not have the opportunity to utilize for an entire period. Hence, individuals paying annuities prefer ordinary annuities.

Considering the above, it can be said that annuity due would result in more savings at the end due to its higher future value than ordinary annuity by a factor of one plus periodic interest rate.
