An * annuity is a financial instrument that pays consistent periodic payments. As with any annuity, * the perpetuity value formula sums the present value of future cash flows. * <p> * Common examples of when the perpetuity value formula is used is in consols issued in the UK and * preferred stocks. Preferred stocks in most circumstances receive their dividends prior to any * dividends paid to common stocks and the dividends tend to be fixed, and in turn, their value can * be calculated using the perpetuity formula. * <p> * The value of a perpetuity can change over time even though the payment remains the same. This * occurs as the discount rate used may change. If the discount rate used lowers, the denominator of * the formula lowers, and the value will increase. * <p> * It should be noted that the formula shown supposes that the cash flows per period never change. * * @see http://www.financeformulas.net/Perpetuity.html * @author Anatole * @author Werner * */ public final class PresentValueOfPerpetuity implements MonetaryOperator { private Rate rate; private PresentValueOfPerpetuity(Rate rate) { this.rate = Objects.requireNonNull(rate); } /** * Get the rate of this operator instance. * @return the rate, never null. */ public Rate getRate() { return rate; } /** * Access a MonetaryOperator for calculation. * * @param rate The rate, not null. * @return the operator, never null. */ public static PresentValueOfPerpetuity of(Rate rate) { return new PresentValueOfPerpetuity(rate); } /** * Performs the calculation. * * @param amount the first payment * @param rate The rate, not null. * @return the resulting amount, never null. */ public static MonetaryAmount calculate(MonetaryAmount amount, Rate rate) { Objects.requireNonNull(amount, "Amount required"); Objects.requireNonNull(rate, "Rate required"); return amount.divide(rate.get()); } @Override public MonetaryAmount apply(MonetaryAmount amount) { return calculate(amount, rate); } @Override public String toString() { return "PresentValueOfPerpetuity{" + "rate=" + rate + '}'; } }
