Annuity FV at 6 percent

By Jude Wallis

At 6 percent, the future value of an annuity of 1 for 5 periods is 5.6371. Multiply a cash amount by that factor. This column is independently recomputed.

The formula

FVIFA=(1+r)n1rFVIFA = \frac{(1 + r)^{n} - 1}{r}

Multiply a level payment by the factor to get what the stream is worth at the end.

Worked example

Using the 6 percent column, what factor sits at 5 periods, and what is 1,000 times that factor?

  1. Read down the 6 percent column to row 5, giving 5.6371.
  2. Multiply: 1000 x 5.6371.

The factor is 5.6371. The product is 5637.1.

How these figures were checked

Every factor on this page is recomputed before the site can build, by a separate program that works a different way: repeated multiplication instead of a power function, a period-by-period sum instead of a closed-form annuity factor, and a solved loan schedule instead of a payment formula. If the two methods disagree anywhere, the page does not ship. Printed factor tables carry typos because nobody can check three thousand numbers by hand; this one is checked on every build.
