What is the PV factor of an annuity?

Given a specific rate of return, or discount rate, an annuity's present value is the current worth of its expected future payments. The present value of the annuity decreases with increasing discount rates. A succession of future annuities' present values are determined using the annuity's present value interest factor. Its foundation is the time value of money principle, according to which a sum of money acquired today is worth more than the same sum received at a later time.

The PV of final annuity

PV = A[ (1+r)ⁿ - 1/ r(1+r)ⁿ]

PV =  $82,000

r = 5 rpa

r = 15 years

So,  $82,000 = A [tex]\frac{(1+0.05)-1}{0.05(1+0.05)^{15} }}[/tex]

$82,000 = A[tex][\frac{1.07893}{0.10395}][/tex]

$82,000 = A [[tex]\frac{82,000}{10.3793}[/tex]]

A = $ 7900

So she can withdraw $7900 for next 15 years.

If yield is 8%

So,  $82,000 = A [tex]\frac{(1+0.08)^{15}-1}{0.08(1+0.08)^{15} }}[/tex]

$82,000 = A[tex][\frac{2.17217}{0.25377}][/tex]

$82,000 = A [8.5596]

A = [tex]\frac{82000}{85596}[/tex]

= $ 9.580

So she can withdraw $9,580 for next 15 years.
