1. Valuation.
A series of cash flows modelled to carry on for an infinite amount of time in the future.
2. Fixed perpetuity.
A fixed perpetuity is a periodic cash flow starting one period in the future, then carrying on for ever thereafter.
Each cash flow is an equal fixed amount.
The present value of a fixed perpetuity is calculated - assuming a constant periodic cost of capital (r) for all periods from now to infinity - as:
Present Value = A1 x 1/r
where:
A1 = Time 1 cash flow
r = periodic cost of capital
Example 1: Fixed perpetuity valuation
Time 1 cash flow = $10m, continuing at the same amount each period thereafter in perpetuity.
Periodic cost of capital = 5%
The present value of the fixed perpetuity is:
= $10m x (1 / 0.05)
= $10m x 20
= $200m
3. Growing perpetuity.
A growing perpetuity is an infinite series of cash flows, modelled to grow by a constant proportionate amount every period.
For a growing perpetuity, the present value formula is modified to take account of the constant periodic growth rate, as follows:
Present Value = A1 x 1 / (r - g)
where g = the periodic rate of growth of the cash flow.
Example 2: Growing perpetuity valuation
Time 1 cash flow = $10m, growing by a constant percentage amount each period thereafter in perpetuity.
Periodic cost of capital = 5%.
Periodic growth rate = 2%
The present value of the growing perpetuity is:
= A1 x 1 / (r - g)
= $10m x (1 / (0.05 - 0.02) )
= $10m x (1 / 0.03)
= $10m x 33.3
= $333m
The modest rate of growth in the cash flow has added substantially to the total present value.
4. Declining perpetuity.
Growth can be negative, in other words, decline.
For a declining perpetuity, the present value formula is the same as the growing perpetuity, but the growth rate (g) is entered as a negative number as follows:
Example 3: Declining perpetuity valuation
Time 1 cash flow = $10m, declining by a constant percentage amount each period thereafter in perpetuity.
Periodic cost of capital = 5%.
Periodic growth rate = -(2)% negative = -0.02
The present value of the declining perpetuity is:
= A1 x 1 / (r - g)
= $10m x (1 / (0.05 - -0.02) )
= $10m x (1 / 0.07)
= $10m x 14.3
= $143m
The small negative rate of growth in the cash flow has reduced the total present value very substantially.
The growing / declining perpetuity concept is applied in many contexts.
For example, the Dividend growth model for share valuation.
