Find the amount of an ordinary annuity if a payment of ₹ 500 is made at the end of every quarter for 5 years at the rate of 12% per annum compounded quarterly. [Given (1.03)20 = 1.8061]
For an annuity due, C = ₹ 2000, rate = 16% p.a. compounded quarterly for 1 year
∴ Rate of interest per quarter = `square/4` = 4
⇒ r = 4%
⇒ i = `square/100 = 4/100` = 0.04
n = Number of quarters
= 4 × 1
= `square`
⇒ P' = `(C(1 + i))/i [1 - (1 + i)^-n]`
⇒ P' = `(square(1 + square))/0.04 [1 - (square + 0.04)^-square]`
= `(2000(square))/square [1 - (square)^-4]`
= 50,000`(square)`[1 – 0.8548]
= ₹ 7,550.40
