Understanding Perpetuity
An annuity is a stream of cash flows. A perpetuity is a type of annuity that lasts forever, into perpetuity. The stream of cash flows continues for an infinite amount of time. In finance, a person uses the perpetuity calculation in valuation methodologies to find the present value of a company's cash flows when discounted back at a certain rate.
An example of a financial instrument with perpetual cash flows was the British-issued bonds known as consols, which the Bank of England phased out in 2015. By purchasing a consol from the British government, the bondholder was entitled to receive annual interest payments forever.
Perpetuity Present Value Formula
The formula to calculate the present value of perpetuity or security with perpetual cash flows is as follows:
$PV =\frac{C}{(1+r)^1}+\frac{C}{(1+r)^2}+\frac{C}{(1+r)^3} \cdots=\frac{C}{r}$
where:
PV present value
C = cash flow
r = discount rate

(b) Find the present value of a perpetuity of ₹ 500 payable at the end of each quarter, if money is worth 8% per annum.
(c) Find the present value of a perpetuity of ₹ 300 payable at the beginning of every 6 months, if money is worth 6% per annum.

The nominal rate of return is the amount of money generated by an investment before factoring in expenses such as taxes, investment fees, and inflation. If an investment generated a $10 \%$ return, the nominal rate would equal $10 \%$. After factoring in inflation during the investment period, the actual return would likely be lower. However, the nominal rate of return has its merits since it allows investors to compare the performance of an investment irrespective of the different tax rates that might be applied for each investment.

Loans are an integral part of our lives today. We take loans for a specific purpose - for buying a home, or a car,or sending kids abroad for education - loans help us achieve some significant life goals. That said, when we talk about loans, the word “EMI", eventually crops up because the amount we borrow has to be returned to the lender
with interest.
Suppose a person borrows ₹1 lakh for one year at the fixed rate of 9.5 percent per annum with a monthly rest. In this case, the EMI for the borrower for 12 months works out to approximately ₹8,768.
