Understanding Types of Annuities

An annuity is a series of equal payments made at regular intervals. There are three main types: ordinary annuities make payments at the end of each period; annuities due make payments at the beginning of each period; and deferred annuities delay the first payment by some number of periods. Annuities can be used for installment purchases, loan amortization, depreciation, and insurance payments. Formulas are provided to calculate the present value (P) or future value (F) of an annuity when the payment amount (A) is given.
