Present Value of Growing Annuity (PVGA) represents the current equivalent amount of growing future payments for a specific interest rate and a number of periods the interest is compounding. Present Value can be calculated for an ordinary annuity (paid at the end of period) or for an annuity due (paid at the beginning of period).

Present Value of Growing Ordinary Annuity formula (PVGOA) is:

a) Interest Rate ≠ Growing Rate

 Present Value of Growing Ordinary Annuity formula 

b) Interest Rate = Growing Rate

 Present Value of Growing Ordinary Annuity formula 

Present Value of Growing Annuity Due formula (PVGAD) is:

 Present Value of Growing Annuity Due formula 

Important notes:

  • The time frame (year, month, quarter etc.) must be the same for both, 'Interest Rate' and 'Number of Time Periods';
  • This model assumes that the Interest Rates stay the same the entire period;
  • This model assumes that Payments are growing by the same rate the entire period;
  • This model uses compound interest method.

This Present Value of Growing Annuity calculator allows you to accomplish the following:

  • Determine the current equivalent amount of growing future payments given a specific growing rate, a specific interest rate and a number of periods the interest is compounding;
  • Compare multiple scenarios, by showing each case in the results section.

The rate at which the payment changes each time period, expressed as a percentage.

Compound interest
The interest that increases exponentially over time periods. The interest earning interest.
Annuity

Ordinary Annuity
The annuity payments are made at the end of each period.
Annuity Due
The annuity payments are made at the beginning of each period.

Present Value of Growing Annuity Examples

Example 1:

You invest 5,000.00 for 25 years at the beginning of each year. Every year you increase (adjust) the invested amount by 3%. How much the investment is worth today at 5.25% annual interest rate compounded annually?

Payment Amount = 5,000

Payment Growing Rate Per Period = 3.00%

Interest Rate Per Period = 5.25%

Number of Time Periods = 25

Annuity Type: Due (Beginning)

Answer: Present Value = 97,622.86

If you were to continually invest, starting with 5,000.00 and increasing it by 3 % every time period (month, quarter, year, etc.) at the beginning of time period, at a rate of 5.25 % per time period, you would receive 350,836.00 after 25 time periods, which is worth 97,622.86 today.

 

Example 2:

You invest 5,000.00 for 25 years at the end of each year. Every year you increase (adjust) the invested amount by 3%. How much the investment is worth today at 5.25% annual interest rate compounded annually?

Payment Amount = 5,000

Payment Growing Rate Per Period = 3.00%

Interest Rate Per Period = 5.25%

Number of Time Periods = 25

Annuity Type: Ordinary (End)

Answer: Present Value = 92,753.31

If you were to continually invest, starting with 5,000.00 and increasing it by 3 % every time period (month, quarter, year, etc.) at the end of time period, at a rate of 5.25 % per time period, you would receive 333,335.86 after 25 time periods, which is worth 92,753.31 today.
