Suppose you receive $100 at the end of each year for the next three years.
What is the future value in three years at 8% interest?
FV of Annuity :
Annuity is series of cash flows that are deposited at regular
intervals for specific period of time.
FV of Annuity = CF [ (1+r)^n - 1 ] / r
r - Int rate per period
n - No. of periods
Particulars | Amount |
Cash Flow | $ 100.00 |
Int Rate | 8.000% |
Periods | 3 |
FV of Annuity = Cash Flow * [ [ ( 1 + r ) ^ n ] - 1 ] /r
= $ 100 * [ [ ( 1 + 0.08 ) ^ 3 ] - 1 ] / 0.08
= $ 100 * [ [ ( 1.08 ) ^ 3 ] - 1 ] / 0.08
= $ 100 * [ [1.2597] - 1 ] / 0.08
= $ 100 * [0.2597] /0.08
= $ 324.64
Future value = $ 324.64
