Deferred Annuities
A Deferred Annuity is a type of annuity contract that delays
income, installment or lump-sum payments until the investor
elects to receive them.
A Deferred annuity is an insurance contract designed for
long-term savings. Unlike an immediate annuity, which starts
annual or monthly payments almost immediately, investors
can delay payments from a deferred annuity indefinitely.

10 years from now Mr. X will start receiving a
pension of $ 3000 a year for 16 years. How much
the pension worth now if interest rate is 10%.

Suppose that a father, on the day of his son is born, wishes to

determine what lump amount would have to be paid into an
account bearing interest of 12% per year to provide withdrawals
of $2000 on each of the son’s 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st birthdays.

11. Pause and solve

When you take your first job, you decide to start saving right away for
your retirement. You put $5000 per year in the company’s 401 (k) plan
which average interest 8% per year. Five year later, you moved to
another job and start a new 401 (k) plan. You never get around to
merging the funds in the two plans. If the first plan continued to earn
interest @8% per year for 35 years after you stopped making
contribution. How much is the account worth?

Sometimes cash flows change by a constant amount each period.

We can model these situations as a uniform gradient of
cash flows. The table below shows such a gradient.

It is easy to find the present value of a uniform gradient

series.
Similar to the other types of cash flows, there is a formula
(albeit quite complicated) we can use to find the present value,
and a set of factors developed for interest tables.

We can also find A or F equivalent to a uniform gradient

series.

Nominal and Effective Interest Rates
In finance and economics,
the nominal interest rate or
nominal rate of interest is
either of two distinct
things: the rate of interest
before adjustment for
inflation; or, for interest
rates "as stated" without
adjustment for the full
effect of compounding.
Kathmandu
University
The effective annual interest rate is
the interest rate that is actually
earned or paid on an investment, loan
or other financial product due to the
result of compounding over a given
time period. It is also called
the effective interest rate,
the effective rate or the annual
equivalent rate.

Nominal and effective interest rates.

• More often than not, the time between successive compounding, or
the interest period, is less than one year (e.g., daily, monthly,
quarterly).
• The annual rate is known as a nominal rate.
• A nominal rate of 12%, compounded monthly, means an interest of
1% (12%/12) would accrue each month, and the annual rate would be
effectively somewhat greater than 12%.
• The more frequent the compounding the greater the effective interest.

Rs. 10000 (1+0.1)1 = Rs. 11000

Rs. 10,000 (1+0.1/2)2= Rs, 11,025

Rs. 10,000 (1+0.1/4)4= Rs. 11,038.13
Rs. 10000 (1+0.1/12)12= 11,047.13

= (1+ 0.1/2)2 – 1

= 10.25%

Interest can be compounded continuously.

• Interest is typically compounded at the end of discrete
periods.
• In most companies cash is always flowing, and should be
immediately put to use.
• We can allow compounding to occur continuously
throughout the period.
• The effect of this compared to discrete compounding is
small in most cases.
 Kathmandu
University

We can use the effective interest

formula to derive the interest
factors.

As the number of compounding periods gets larger (M gets

larger), we find that

Continuous Compounding and Single Amounts

You have $10,000 to invest for two years. Your bank offers 5% interest,
compounded continuously for funds in a money market account.
Assuming no additional deposits or withdrawals, how much money will
be in that account at the end of two years?

F = $10,000 (F/P, r=5%, 2 yrs) = $10,000 e (0.05)(2) = $10,000 (1.1052) = $11,052

Comment
If the interest rate was 5% compounded annually, the account would have been
worth

F = $10,000 (F/P, 5%, 2 yrs) = $10,000 (1.1025) = $11,025
