      I think it’s because after so many years into the future , the value of the future payments (which are always being discounted) are so close to zero that they do not add up to much. If you were to graph the cash flows that were discounted on this perpetuity they’d you’d see that it would be an asymptote. (Approaches zero but never actually touches)

      +Joanne Lim Hi Jo! People take the discount rate to mean a lot of things depending on the context, but I would suggest you think of it as follows: it is the rate of return (or interest rate) you could have earned on an investment with similar risk. In that sense you could see the discount rate as representing the opportunity cost of capital. The basic principal of time value of money is that $1 received today is not equivalent to $1 received one year from now, because the $1 received today could have earned interest and grown to an amount larger than $1 by the end of the year. The rate by which we assume the $1 received today would have grown is the discount rate; thus, if we want to look at cash flows received in the future and discount them to their present value (their equivalent value in today's dollars) we use the discount rate to do the discounting.

    So a lifetime pension, such as a social security payment of $1300 monthly, starting next month with a rate of 3.5% would have a PV of about $446,000; does that sound accurate?
    Now what if those payments did not begin for 10 years? Would you solve for PV of the $446K to see what that would be worth today, using the single cash flow method?

  • @EOCmodernRS

    This should be AFTER a payment is made, according to a test I'm taking. So, if you were trying to find the value BEFORE a payment is made, it would be the number you came up with (8 333,33333) + 500 (one cash flow) = 8 888,3333. If this is correct, why is it so?

      as time goes on under whatever your constant interest rate is the value of those future cash flows becomes smaller and smaller, think of a graph with a curve and asymptotes. The curve approaches it but never gets past it, think of the present value of a perpetuity as this asymptote.

    • @Edspira
      @Edspira  6 лет назад +8

      It is the value of the stream of cash flows in today's dollars (assuming that the investment continues to perform at the same rate). If you were offered 9,000 today or $500 every year in perpetuity, you should choose the $9,000 today since it is greater than 8.3k. You could hypothetically invest the 9,000 today and make more money in the long run than taking $500 each year in perpetuity.

      Yes, perpetuity is forever. The logic is that you can make more money by investing the 9,000 now then getting 500 a year forever.

The prevailing market nomina rate is 5.5% is the present value of the perpertual more than 1000? That harold is owed..

    • @iandms1160
      @iandms1160 7 лет назад

      since it is the beginning of each month its a perpetuity due so rather then doing payment/I you have to divide payment by the discount rate instead, alternatively you could just add the payment to the value you got which gives you 5+1090.909 which with rounding gets 1095.91

    *Hello, assuming ,hypothetically speaking, that the inflation rate (cost of living) is perpetually constant and so too is the discount rate applied to the perpetuity:Wouldn't the value of the perpetuity EXCEED its present value after a certain period of time has passed and once funds are not drawn from the perpetuity? Therefore it would be foolish for one to accept the present value of such an investment as opposed to its future cash streams (assuming it is a risk-free perpetuity). Am I right?*

    • @Edspira
      @Edspira  7 лет назад

      Ivor,
      Since a perpetuity is paying out a cash flow of $500 per period, this is a "withdraw" from the pool of funds every period that could have otherwise been earning interest. Thus, I don't agree with your statement that "funds are not drawn from the perpetuity". The perpetuity is paying-out $500 every period. This equation is calculating the present value of the perpetuity. Thus, if given the option of receiving $500 a period for the rest of your life or $8,333.33 now these two amounts would be equivalent.

    • @ivornworrell
      @ivornworrell 7 лет назад

      Thank you for the reply.I was thinking of an annuity (investment fund) which is why I said funds were not withdrawn, but thank you for the clarification.But I am still puzzled because if I am receiving $500.00 annually for the rest of my life, $8333.33/$500=17 approx. So after 17 years the total accumulated $500 annual amts will EXCEED the present value of $8333.33, so how can it be equivalent to accept either $8333.33 now or $500 for life?
