What is an Annuity Calculator?

An Annuity Calculator is a powerful financial tool that helps you calculate various aspects of annuities, including payment amounts, present value, future value, and the number of payment periods. Whether you're planning for retirement, evaluating investment options, or analyzing pension payments, an Annuity Calculator provides the precise calculations needed for informed financial decisions.

How Does an Annuity Calculator Work?

The Annuity Calculator uses time value of money principles to compute annuity values. It can calculate:

• Payment Amount (PMT): How much you'll receive or pay each period
• Present Value (PV): Current worth of future annuity payments
• Future Value (FV): Total value of annuity at the end of payment period
• Number of Periods (N): How long payments will last

Types of Annuities in the Calculator

Our Annuity Calculator supports both major types of annuities:

• Ordinary Annuity: Payments made at the end of each period
• Annuity Due: Payments made at the beginning of each period

Annuity Calculator Formulas

The Annuity Calculator uses these standard financial formulas:

• Payment: PMT = PV × [r(1+r)ⁿ] / [(1+r)ⁿ - 1]
• Present Value: PV = PMT × [1 - (1+r)⁻ⁿ] / r
• Future Value: FV = PMT × [(1+r)ⁿ - 1] / r
