Present value is defined as K/i where K is the annual cash flow and i is the discount rate.

How would this formula change if the cash flow happens lets say evey 8 years in prepetuity (instead of every year). Thank you.

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
why should the formual change. Remeber it is for perpetuity. But if you wanted you could divide K by 8

I was thinking about it. We have to first convert the every 8 yr cashflow to a yearly cashflow which can then be used by using the perpetuity formula.
