Introduction: Welcome to our 25-Year Annuity Calculator, a valuable tool for individuals planning long-term investments with a fixed annual interest rate. An annuity provides a series of regular payments over a specified period, and this calculator helps you estimate the future value of your investment over 25 years.
Formula: The formula used in this calculator is derived from the present value of an annuity formula: ��=�×(1−(1+�)−�)�PV=rP×(1−(1+r)−n), where ��PV is the present value, �P is the initial investment, �r is the annual interest rate (as a decimal), and �n is the number of years.
