Valuing a Deferred Annuity
Valuing a Deferred Annuity
A deferred annuity has a stream of cash flows of equal amounts at regular periods starting at some time after the end of the first period. When we cal- culated the present value of an annuity, we brought a series of cash flows back to the beginning of the first period—or, equivalently the end of the period 0. With a deferred annuity, we determine the present value of the ordinary annuity and then discount this present value to an earlier period.
To illustrate the calculation of the present value of an annuity due, suppose you deposit $20,000 per year in an account for 10 years, start- ing today, for a total of 10 deposits. What will be the balance in the account at the end of 10 years if the balance in the account earns 5% per year? The future value of this annuity due is:

due 10 ,
Future value annuity factor (ordinary) = $20,000
1 0.05 ( for 10 periods and 5% + ) = $20,000 12.5779 ( ) 1 0.05 ( + ) = $264,135.74
Suppose you want to deposit an amount today in an account such that you can withdraw $5,000 per year for four years, with the first withdrawal occurring five years from today. We can solve this problem in two steps:
Step 1: Solve for the present value of the withdrawals. Step 2: Discount this present value to the present.
The first step requires determining the present value of a four-cash flow ordinary annuity of $5,000. This calculation provides the present value as of the end of the fourth year (one period prior to the first withdrawal):
PV 4 = $5,000
∑ ----------------------------
t = 1 ( 1 + 0.04 ) t
= $5,000 present value annuity factor ( N = 4 , i = 4% ) = $18,149.48
This means that there must be a balance in the account of $18,149.48 at the end of the fourth period to satisfy the withdrawals of $5,000 per year for four years.
The second step requires discounting the $18,149.48—the savings goal—to the present, providing the deposit today that produces the goal:
The balance in the account throughout the entire eight-year period is shown in Exhibit 7.10, with the balance indicated both before and after the $5,000 withdrawals.
Let’s look at a more complex deferred annuity. Consider making a series of deposits, beginning today, to provide for a steady cash flow beginning at some future time period. If interest is earned at a rate of 4% compounded per year, what amount must be deposited in a savings

account each year for four years, starting today, so that $1,000 may be withdrawn each year for five years, beginning five years from today? As with any deferred annuity, we need to perform this calculation in steps:
Step 1: Calculate the present value of the $1,000 per year five-year ordinary annuity as of the end of the fourth year:
The present value of the annuity deferred to the end of the fourth period is
PV 4 = $1,000
--------------------------- = $1,000 4.4518 = ∑ $4,451.80
1 + 0.04 t
Therefore, there must be $4,451.80 in the account at the end of the fourth year to permit five $1,000 withdrawals at the end of each of the years 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
Step 2: Calculate the cash flow needed to arrive at the future value of that annuity due comprising four annual deposits earning 4% compounded interest, starting today.

Mathematics of Finance
The present value of the annuity at the end of the fourth year, $4,451.80, is the future value of the annuity due of four payments of an unknown amount. Using the formula for the future value of an annuity due,
4 – t + $4,451.80 1 = CF ( 1 + 0.04 ) = CF 4.2465 ( ) 1.04 ( ∑ )
and rearranging, CF = $4,451.80 4.4164 ⁄ = $1,008.02
Therefore, by depositing $1,008.02 today and the same amount on the same date each of the next three years, we will have a balance in the account of $4,451.80 at the end of the fourth period. With this period 4 balance, we will be able to withdraw $1,000 at the end of the following five periods.
