The present value of the growing perpetuity is:

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:
 
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 3: Declining perpetuity valuation'''</span>
 
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:
 
= A<sub>1</sub> x 1 / (r - g)
 
= $10m x (1 / (0.05 - -0.02) )
 
= $10m x (1 / 0.07)
 
= $10m x 14.3
 
= $'''143'''m
 
 
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.


So a negotiable instrument can be transfered simply by endorsement or by delivery (depending what type of negotiable instrument it is).

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.
