State whether the following statement is True or False:

Annuity contingent begins and ends on certain fixed dates


For annuity due,

C = ₹ 20,000, n = 3, I = 0.1, (1.1)–3 = 0.7513

Therefore, P = `square/0.1 xx [1 - (1 + 0.1)^square]`

= 2,00,000 [1 – 0.7513]

= ₹ `square`


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
