Pension Annuity Payout Estimator Description
Understanding Pension Annuity
- Definition: A financial product that provides a steady income stream in exchange for a lump sum investment.
- Benefits: Predictability and financial security.
How It Works
- Invest a lump sum principal (P).
- Funds grow at an annual rate (r).
- Payments are made over your lifespan (N years).
- Payment frequency is defined by periods per year (m).
Derivation of the Annuity Payment Formula
A = P × (r/m) / [1 – (1 + r/m)-mN]
Variables:
- A – payment per period
- P – lump sum investment
- r – annual nominal return rate (decimal)
- m – number of payment periods per year
- N – life expectancy in years
Edge-Case Explanations
- Zero Rate (r = 0): Simplifies to A = P / (mN).
- Zero Life Expectancy (N → 0): Undefined (division by zero).
- Negative Rate: Principal declines over time; payouts may exceed initial investment.
- Infinite Horizon: Approaches a perpetuity: A ≈ P × (r/m).
- High-Frequency Payments: As m increases, individual payments decrease; total annual payout approaches P × r.
Mini Case Studies
Case Study 1: John Doe, Age 65
A = 150000 × (0.035/12) / [1 – (1 + 0.035/12)-240] ≈ $865.45
Case Study 2: Mary Smith, Age 60
A = 250000 × 0.05 / [1 – (1 + 0.05)-30] ≈ $16,297.01
