Formula

Following is the formula for calculating present value of an annuity:
PVA = P * ((1 - 1 / (1 + i)n) / i)
where,
PVA = Present value
P = Periodic payment amount
n = Number of payments
i = Periodic interest rate per payment period; This is derived from nominal annual rate using the formula shown in the calculator for periodic interest rate.

For annuities where the payment is made in the beginning of a period,
PVAannuity due = PVA * (1 + i)

You can solve for all four variables involved in present value of annuity calculation viz. PVA, P, n and i. Unlike spreadsheets and financial calculator models, there is no convention of using negative numbers. Enter only positive values in this present value of annuity calculator.
