Whether you’re planning for retirement, seeking long-term financial security or aiming to diversify your investment portfolio, annuities offer a customizable solution tailored to you. Discover how annuities can help secure your financial future. In investment, an annuity is a series of payments made at equal intervals. Examples of annuities are regular deposits to a savings account, monthly home mortgage payments, monthly insurance payments and pension payments. 1.02 How do annuities work? At their most basic, annuities work by converting a premium into a stream of payments. The amount and duration of the payments depend on various factors, including the type of annuity, the premium amount, the annuitant’s age and the chosen payout option. Annuities can be optimized for income or long-term growth, but they are not short-term investment strategies. Most annuities supply income through a process of accumulation and annuitization. The exception is immediate annuities that begin paying out as soon as within a month of purchase with no accumulation phase necessary. 1.03 Finding the right type of annuity Annuities can be classified by the frequency of payment dates. There are three main types of annuities: fixed annuities, fixed index annuities and variable annuities. Annuities can also be classified as immediate or deferred, indicating when you will begin receiving annuity payments. Your personal goals and objectives will help determine the best type of annuity for you. 1.04 Select the right type of annuity There are pros and cons to each type of annuity. You should consider how the features of different types of annuities work best for your current financial situation and how each can help you reach your long-term financial goals. Annuity in our daily life | 8 Figure 01.01 : Risk scale of annuity type You should also compare several different annuity options, ask yourself how each meets your needs and talk to a financial professional about how each annuity you’re considering will help you achieve your goals. 1.05 Uses of annuity Having a fixed and stable income is important to lead a financially independent life. An annuity is one of the few ways in which you can enjoy a fixed income at a pre-decided time. Whether trying to make a retirement plan or looking for a source of income, buying an annuity can be a great option. (a) Tax-deferred growth You will not pay income taxes on the earnings from your annuity investments till you begin making withdrawals or getting periodic payments. Note that withdrawals before age 59½ may be subject to an additional 10% tax. (b) Unlimited contributions There is no limit to the amount of after-tax money you can place into an annuity, despite your income level or sources of income. (c) Choice of investment options - Fixed annuities extends a stated rate of return for a specified period. Variable annuities include various investment options, such as stocks, bonds, and money market instruments that vary with market conditions. (d) No necessary withdrawals If your annuity is not part of an IRA or a retirement plan, you are not expected to begin taking minimum distributions after age 72. Annuity in our daily life | 9 (e) Death benefit. Payout methods include insurance features that confirm payment to your designated beneficiaries if you die before your withdrawals begin. In most cases, this payment does not need to pass through probate. The annuity has many advantages but one of the biggest advantages is that it provides a regular income source throughout life, even after retirement. There are different annuity plans available for you to choose from. This allows you to choose the annuity plan that best suits your requirement at the time. Annuity plans are quite flexible and allow you to customize your plans according to your needs. You can choose a single life plan or a joint life plan for you and your partner. According to the Income Tax Act you get certain tax benefits by purchasing an annuity plan. So to conclude, an annuity investment is one of the best ways of having a fixed source of income throughout your lifetime. It is also a great way of planning your post-retirement life and keeping a steady income even after retirement. . Annuity in our daily life | 10 Chapter - 02 Fundamentals of Annuities 2.01 Annuity Meaning Many people have had the experience of making a series of fixed payments over a course of time - such as rent, premium or vehicle payments - or obtaining a series of payments for a course of time, such as the certificate of deposit (CD) or interest from a bond or lending money. These ongoing or recurring payments are technically called "Annuities”. 2.02 Types of Annuity Annuity may be classified in to 02 (Two) categories (a) Annuity certain (also known as a guaranteed or fixed annuity) Annuity certain (also known as a guaranteed or fixed annuity) This annuity pays you a set amount over a pre-determined period of time. For example, you can buy an annuity that will pay you $500 a month for 20 years. The annuity certain may be further classified into 02 (Two) categories (i) Annuity Due An annuity due is an annuity whose payment is due immediately at the beginning of each period. A common example of an annuity due payment is rent, as landlords often require payment upon the start of a new month as opposed to collecting it after the renter has enjoyed the benefits of the apartment for an entire month (ii) Annuity ordinary (immediate annuity) An ordinary annuity is a series of equal payments made at the end of consecutive periods over a fixed length of time. While the payments in an ordinary annuity can be made as frequently as every week, in practice they are generally made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. A common example of ordinary annuities are interest payments from bonds, which are generally made semiannually, and quarterly dividends from a stock that has maintained stable payout levels for years. Annuity in our daily life | 11 The present value of an ordinary annuity is largely dependent on the prevailing interest rate. (b) Contingent annuity Contingent annuity is an annuity that is subject to conditions or terms that must be met before the beneficiary will receive payments. The most common use of contingent annuities is for life insurance and pensions which are contingent on someone either being alive or deceased. Fixed-period annuities, also known as term deferred annuities, are a type of annuity that is paid out over a certain period of time. For example, it might pay out over the course of 10 or 20 years. If you unexpectedly pass away during the payment term, you can have payments continue to a beneficiary. 2.03 Present value and future value of annuity Present value and future value are terms that are frequently used in annuity contracts. The present value of an annuity is the sum that must be invested now to guarantee a desired payment in the future, while its future value is the total that will be achieved over time. (a) Present value of annuity The present value of an annuity refers to how much money would be needed today to fund a series of future annuity payments. Because of the time value of money, a sum of money received today is worth more than the same sum at a future date. Present value takes into account any interest rate an investment might earn. For example, if an investor receives $1,000 today and can earn a rate of return of 5% per year, the $1,000 today is certainly worth more than receiving $1,000 five years from now. (a) Future value of annuity The future value of an annuity is the value of a group of recurring payments at a certain date in the future, assuming a particular rate of return, or discount rate. Annuity in our daily life | 12 An example of future value of annuity would be if someone invested $1,000 today and received an annual payment of $100 for the next 10 years. The future value of this annuity would be $2,614.87 at the end of 10 years. 2.04 Importance of annuity Annuities allow the contract owner to choose, within contract limits, when and how to receive annuity income payments. Annuity options are available that can guarantee income for life, for a specific period of time, or both. Annuity in our daily life | 13 Chapter - 03 Mathematical Formulas of Annuities 3.01 information required for annuity formula The present value and future value of an annuity is affected by the interest rate, the length of time until the payments are received, and the amount of each payment. To calculate the present value of an annuity, you will need to know the interest rate, the length of time until the payments are received, and the amount of each payment. (a) Payment amount Amount of money you envision getting paid by period (monthly, quarterly or annually). (b) Interest rate The interest rate per period. (c) Number of time periods (d) Type of annuity The information is needed to calculate present value of an annuity. 3.02 Mathematical Symbol that used in formula To describe the mathematical we use the following symbol. Lets a n i P or PV F or FV 3.03 annual payment (instalment per period) number of year (Number of period) interest rate (interest rate per period) Present Value Future Value Present value of annuity calculation The present value of annuity is the current value of the total amount of annuity at the end of the given period. In others word, Present value of a given sum if money Annuity in our daily life | 14 due at the end of a certain period of time is the sum of principal amount plus interest accumulated at the given rate for the same period. 3.04 (a) Present value of ordinary annuity (or Immediate annuity) (b) Present value of annuity Due Future value of annuity calculation The future value of an annuity is the sum of all payments made and interest earned on them at the end of the term of annuities. (a) Future value of ordinary annuity (or Immediate annuity) (b) Future value of annuity Due Perpetual annuity is an annuity whose payment continues forever. As such the amount of perpetuity is undefined as the amount increases without any limit as time passeson. We know that the present value of P of immediate annuity is given by Annuity in our daily life | 15 Now as per the definition of perpetual annuity as We know that Since 1+i>1, Hence Annuity in our daily life | 16 Chapter - 04 Annuity function in Microsoft Excel 4.01 Annuity Functions in Excel Microsoft Excel provides various functions to perform constant annuity calculations. These functions can be used for both loans and investments. Constant annuities are streams of equal cash flows occurring at equal intervals. All annuities are governed by a set of variables. Excel provides functions for all these variables. These variables are: Rate The interest rate per period Nper Total number of periods in the annuity PMT The payment per period PV The present value of cash flows. The total amount that a series of future cash flows is worth now. FV The future value of cash flows based on periodic, equal cash flows. Type Select Annuity Type (Type is whether the annuity is a regular or an annuity due. Use 0 for regular annuities, and 1 for annuity due.) (By default type is 0.) An additional input is the “Type”, which is 0 for a regular annuity or annuity in arrears where the first payment occurs one period from now and 1 for an annuity due or annuity in advance where the first payment occurs now. Any variable given in squared brackets is optional. There are five key functions to calculate different aspects of an annuity: (a) PV( rate, nper, pmt, [fv], [type]) This function calculates the present value of an annuity, once we have the periodic payments. (b) FV( rate, nper, pmt, [pv], [type]) This function calculates the present value of an annuity, once we have the periodic payments. Annuity in our daily life | 17 (c) PMT( rate, nper, pv, [fv], [type]) This function calculates the periodic payments in an annuity. (d) NPER( rate, pmt, pv, [fv], [type]) This function calculates the number of payments in an annuity. (e) RATE( nper, pmt, pv, [fv], [type],[guess]) This function calculates the interest rate earned in the annuity. Guess is your guess for what the rate will. By default its value is 0.10.
