Answer key: Annuity worksheet

  1. 1. Present value: $72,844.79

    1. Find the interest rate for each month (i): divide the yearly rate by 12, because interest is added with each payment

      i=0.0812=0.00666667
    2. Count the payments (N): 12 a year for 17 years

      N=12×17=204
    3. Shrink each payment back to what it's worth today, then add them all up. Then multiply by (1 + i), because each payment is made at the start of its period

      $650.00×1−(1+0.00666667)−2040.00666667×(1+0.00666667)=$72,844.79
    4. Take the present value away from the plain total of the payments. The gap, called the discount, is the cost of waiting for the money

      $132,600.00−$72,844.79=$59,755.21
  2. 2. Future value: $57,836.81

    1. Find the interest rate for each quarter (i): divide the yearly rate by 4, because interest is added with each payment

      i=0.054=0.0125
    2. Count the payments (N): 4 a year for 18 years

      N=4×18=72
    3. Grow each payment with interest to the end of the term, then add them all up

      $500.00×(1+0.0125)72−10.0125=$57,836.81
    4. Take away what you paid in to see how much interest you earned

      $57,836.81−$36,000.00=$21,836.81
  3. 3. Payout per month: $2,240.37

    1. Find the interest rate for each month (i): divide the yearly rate by 12, because interest is added with each payment

      i=0.0512=0.00416667
    2. Count the payments (N): 12 a year for 18 years

      N=12×18=216
    3. Find the payment that uses up the balance exactly by the last payment, counting the interest it earns along the way. Then divide by (1 + i), because each payment comes at the start of its period

      $320,000.00×0.004166671−(1+0.00416667)−216(1+0.00416667)=$2,240.37
    4. Add up everything you receive over the whole term

      $2,240.37×216=$483,920.66
    5. Take away the starting balance to see the interest it earned while paying out

      $483,920.66−$320,000.00=$163,920.66
  4. 4. Future value: $477,745.67

    1. Find the interest rate for each month (i): divide the yearly rate by 12, because interest is added with each payment

    2. Count the payments (N): 12 a year for 28 years

      N=12×28=336
    3. Grow each payment with interest to the end of the term, then add them all up

      $550.00×(1+0.005)336−10.005=$477,745.67
    4. Take away what you paid in to see how much interest you earned

      $477,745.67−$184,800.00=$292,945.67
  5. 5. Payout per year: $22,057.22

      $225,000.00×0.081−(1+0.08)−22=$22,057.22
    4. Add up everything you receive over the whole term

      $22,057.22×22=$485,258.74
