This Formula Calculator calculates the present value of series of payment that increase at a constant rate with the first payment at the end of period 0.
Formula: pv((1+fcRate/100) /(1+fcGrowth / 100) - 1, fcnper, fcpmt, 0, 0)/(1+fcGrowth/100)
PV / fcPv : The present value.
N / fcNper : The number of periods.
i% / fcRate : The periodic rate.
PMT / fcPmt : The base periodic payment at the beginning of period zero. This payment increases by g% each period.
g% / fcGrowth : The periodic growth rate of the payment.
"You are considering the purchase of an investment that will pay $1,000 after one year, and then 4 additional payments that grow at a rate of 3% per year to account for expected inflation. If your required return is 8% per year, what is the value of this investment?"
