Answer: The correct answer is "false".
Explanation: The payment term in the formula for the calculation of the present value of an annuity consists of 3 variables.
Term of the operation: The term of the operation is the duration in the time that the operation has, from the constitution of the annuity until its expiration.
Periodic payment: The periodic payment is how often the annuity pays interest. (For example: monthly, quarterly or annual).
and "N": It is the number of times that the periodic payment enters within the term of the operation. For example, if the term of the operation is 1 year, and the periodic payment monthly, N = 12. If the term is 1 year and the periodic payment is quarterly, N = 4.
This number "n" is the one used in the formula for calculating the present value of an annuity.
