    In this video, I show how to calculate the present value of an annuity. In addition to converting the series of payments via the traditional discounting method, I'll show how to solve the problem utilizing a handy equation.

    Absolutely. You would have to change the number of periods (n) and your interest rate (i). For example, if you were discounting future cash flows for 3 years, but in quarters, you would multiple that figure by 4 to get 12 periods. You would also modify your interest rate, lets say 8 percent annually, by dividing it the number of quarters in a year (4) to get 2 percent per quarter. Great question. Hope this helps.

  • @smithjo4152
    @smithjo4152 11 років тому

    Thank You so much Matt for the rapid response. Just so I could understand, to determine real cash flows and real discount rates, do I reduce these items by the inflation rate and based on your previous response, am I merely subtracting the inflation rate from the cash-flow?

  • @smithjo4152

    Thank You for these instructions. I have a question, How do you add the calculation of inflation to this equation?

    are the annuities in this video and the one about future value annuity take into account interest or inflation or both, because i am confused on this

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  9 років тому +2

      DrCashcow10 I didn't touch upon this topic as the goal of this video was simply to introduce students to the formula. You could factor that into the equation yourself by reducing your interest rate by whatever value you believe inflation will be. Fro example, if you project the interest rate to be 6% while inflation holds at 1.5% than use 4.5% as i.

    • @hansenzarael6957
      @hansenzarael6957 5 років тому +4

      It derived from the fact that payment of 1 is made at the end or beginning of each year and hence you have (1)v+(1)v^2+.... and this will give u (1-v^n/i)

    What happens to the present value of an annuity when the interest is compounded more frequently? Could you share an example to visualize it please?
    I can see from the timeline, the amount declines every year.
    My book says the value declines, but I'm getting confused because when I think of interest compounded more frequently I think of how the interest amount increases.
    Thanks

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  10 років тому +1

      Good question. I'm in the middle of a few projects so unfortunately I'm not available to record a separate video. Let me try to explain though. If you choose to compound interest more frequently (i.e. semi-annually, quarterly, monthly) then it will result in a higher future value and lower present value.
      This is because the process of compounding more frequently allows interest to accumulate more quickly. The process for determining the PV or FV when compounding more frequently is the exact same, however your "n" and "i" variables will change to account for the changing in compounding frequency. For example, if your annual interest rate is 8.0 percent, but you are compounding interest semi-annually, then you would use an interest rate of 4.0 percent because you're compounding twice in the year. Lets say that you wanted to determine the future value after four years of compounding interest at 8.0 percent annually. Since interest is compounded twice a year, and you have 4 years, you'll have a total of 8 periods (n=8).
      Hope this helps to clarify a bit.

  • @mitchellhenning6411
    @mitchellhenning6411 6 років тому

    How would you calculate a PVA with more than one interest rate at a certain point in the future. For example for a 12 year annuity
    at 2900 each month and for the first 8 years the interest rate is 8% compounded monthly, but after the first 8 years the interest rate switches to 6% compunded monthly

  • @joshuarobertdaniels

    How do I calculate, at the end of my payments, how much I can withdraw over a given period of time, while still collecting the original interest rate? The account balance at the end being zero.

  • @dhairyajaiswal2423
    @dhairyajaiswal2423 8 років тому

    What would you do if there were compounding periods? like if the value was put in quarterly for 5 years, how would the i value and n value change?

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  8 років тому +2

      If you're compounding periods you would need to make changes to both the interest rate (i) and the number of periods (n). Divide your annual interest rate by four and then multiple the number of periods by 4. So you'll have 20 periods over 5 years if you're compounding quarterly.

  • @rayanrules
    @rayanrules 10 років тому

    Just wondering but how would you find out constant monthly payments of something, not during a specific time period like in this example? (i.e how much would someone have to pay monthly to pay off there debt in 10 years)

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  10 років тому

      That's a great question Ray. You will likely use an amortization schedule to determine the number of years needed to pay off a debt. The following equation will allow you to answer your question Payment = I x Amount/1 - (1 + I )-N. This of course will only look at the explicit cost and not take into account the time value of money.
      Hope this helps.

    how would you calculate the PV if let's say if £100 was invested from years 1-3 and 250 invested from years 4-6?

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  9 років тому

      Usmaan You can use one of three methods. The first is to discount those future cash flows by hand and then add all of them together. The second is to use a financial calculator and enter the cash flows into a cash flow register while solving for PV. The third is to use the corresponding formula in Microsoft Excel. I hope this helps.

    • @zenoelea8613
      @zenoelea8613 9 років тому

      Usmaan Use the "Calculate Present Value Annuity Factor (PVAF) J to N" calculator here to do it:
      www.mrzeno.com/Present-Value-Annuity-Factor-PVAF.php
      Therefore, the answer, for a discount rate of 6% using your figures would be:
      £267.30 + £561.08 = £828.38

  • @rodjohns2550

    Can you show me how to use this formula and solve for i showing all the steps?

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  9 років тому

      Rod Johns If you remember back to your days in math class you'll use the order of operations. PEMDAS is the acronym to determine priority, which stands for parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction. Since there's nothing to solve in parenthesis you'll solve for the exponent first (1.07 to the 3rd power). Divide 1 by the result of 1.07^3. Then solve for 1 minus the result of your previous calculation (should be roughly .81629) which should be around .18370. Then take that figure and divide it by your interest rate, which is .07. Hope that helps.

    • @rodjohns2550

      ***** Thanks but i think you mistook what i was getting at. I know how to solve the equation as per your example, i.e. I have no problems entering the values into the equation and solving for PV. What I want to see is how to solve for the interest rate, i.e, set the equation up to solve for i (the interest rate). It's been along time since i have done math like this > I get as far as 1-PVi/M = 1/(1+i)^n. What are the final steps to get the equation to be set up to solve for r??

    doesn't the formula of PV have a negative n as power? so why is there a positive n as power?

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  10 років тому

      There are a few variations of the PV formula Alisha Walia Kaur. In order to use a negative exponent you would need to change the equation using some basic arithmetic to get the correct response. Perhaps I'm just an optimist and prefer a positive over a negative.

      @blacksword6868 9 років тому

      with the example shown in the video, the exponent should still be positive, as you're only calculating the value of one payment for each period. the formula that has the negative exponent is the one that calculates the values of all payments.

    I still do not understand the difference between (future value of annuity) and present value

    • @Alanisbusinessacademy
      @Alanisbusinessacademy  9 років тому +1

      DrCashcow10 The present value presents what a lump sum of money is worth today. The future value represents what a lump sum of money (today) is worth at some point in the future. An annuity is an equal stream of payments. A future value of annuity commonly represents something like a 401k or other retirement plan. Not only do you commonly invest a lump sum upon creation of the account, but you typically have money diverted from your paycheck each pay period as well. Hope this helps.
