Annuity Payment Calculator

Estimate the regular payment from a lump sum invested as an annuity.

—

Formula

Payment equals lump sum times the periodic rate, divided by one minus one plus the periodic rate to the power of negative periods.

How it works

This models a fixed annuity that pays out until the lump sum is exhausted. Real annuities may be for life, inflation-linked, or include fees, which change the payment.

FAQs

Is the payment guaranteed?
Only as the annuity contract states — check the provider's terms.

What if I live longer than the term?
A fixed-term annuity stops; a lifetime annuity does not.

Are taxes included?
No, annuity income is often taxable — check local rules.

Are these figures financial advice?
No — they are estimates for planning only, not financial advice. Check with a qualified adviser for decisions involving large sums.
