Answer to Problem 2E
The present value of an annuity is the amount that must be invested now at interest rate i per time period to provide n payments each of amount R.
Explanation of Solution
An annuity is a form of financial contract that are typically used for retirement plans by the insurance companies which assures guaranteed payment to the insurer. It is paid by the insurance company for a certain period of time or on lifetime basis.
A present value of annuity computes the total present value of a series of cash flows that are estimated for the future. The present value of annuity is based on the time value of money. The formula used to for present value of annuity is as follows,
Here,
AP = Present Value of Annuity
R = Periodic Payment
i = Interest Rate
n = Number of Years
Therefore, the present value of an annuity is the amount that must be invested now.
