Present value formula

Present Values Annuity
An annuity is a financial product that pays out a fixed stream of payments to an individual, primarily used as an income stream for retirees.
PV = (E[CF] / r ) x (1 − 1 /(1 + r)^T)
E(CF) = each annuity payment T = number of periods r = interest rate / discount rat e
Present Value Perpetuity
PV = E(CF) / r
if growth
PV = FV / (r-g)
Required rate of return
rF + Compensation for risk
Rf
Nominal risk free interest rate
= treasury bond yield - inflation
= real risk free interest rate + expected inflation rate premium
Re
Required rate of return on equity
or expected total return of shareholders

= Risk-Free Rate of Return + Beta × (Market Rate of Return – Risk-Free Rate of Return)
