Suppose someone offered you your choice of two equally risky annuities, each paying $5,000 per year for 5 years. One is an annuity due, while the other is a regular (or deferred) annuity. If you are a rational wealth maximizing investor, which annuity would you choose?
◦ The annuity due
◦ The deferred annuity
◦ Either one, because as the problem is set up, they have the same present value.
◦ Without information about the appropriate interest rate, we cannot find the value of the two annuities, hence we cannot tell which is better.
◦ The annuity due; however, if the payments on both were doubled to $10,000, the deferred annuity would be preferred.
