Why are annuities that pay in the beginning of the year called deferred(which denotes l8r), and annuities that pay at the end of the yr called due Join or Log In to answer.
what i'm finding is that these are not specific to time of year, but rather based on the delay of payment (or immediate payment) of the individual contract terms regardless of the actual calendar date.

I was thinking your answer first but pulled out a paper and pencil and thought "why not" if you were looking at a graph and the line was in the negative quadrant then the meassurement would be negative (if it goes from -2 to -4 then the length is -2). after that I start to get confused. :)

-jamers (276Q / 2813A) Thu Feb 18, 2010 12:04pm


no. a side of a triangle cannot be negative or it would not exist.
-jamers (276Q / 2813A) Thu Feb 18, 2010 11:19am

Correct. It would not exist. But assuming it did for other purposes
