Ordinary Annuity Payment Formula

Formula
$$PMT = \frac{P \times r}{1 – (1 + r)^{-n}}$$

Where:

  • PMT – Periodic Payment
  • P – Principal or Present Value of the annuity
  • r – interest rate per period (in decimal form)
  • n – total number of payment periods

This formula calculates the fixed periodic payment required to repay an annuity over time at a given interest rate.


An ordinary annuity is a financial product where you make fixed payments at regular intervals (e.g., monthly, annually), starting at the end of the first period. It is commonly used in retirement plans and loans where payments are made at the end of each period rather than the beginning. This calculator helps you determine the required payment amount based on the total principal, interest rate, and the length of the annuity period.
