Calculate the accumulated value of an annuity immediate that pays 1000 at the end of each quarter for 20 years. The interest rate is 7% compounded quarterly.
Future value of Annuity formula:
FV of Annuity = P [( (1+r)n - 1) / r]
Where P = Cash flow payment, r = rate of interest, n = number of periods
Given: P = $1000, mode = quarterly, r: 7%/4 = 1.75%, n: 20 *4 = 80 periods
Note: As the interest rate compounds quarterly so it will be divided by 4 and number of years will be multiplied by 4 to get the number of periods.
Putting all the values in the formula, we get:
FV of Annuity = 1000 [( (1+.0175)80 - 1) / .0175]
FV of Annuity = $171793.82
