DELAYED PERPETUITY
A cash flow starting at a predetermined date in the future. For example, preferred fixed dividend paying shares are often valued using a perpetuity formula. If the dividends are going to originate 5 years from now, rather than next year, the stream of cash flows would be considered a delayed perpetuity. The net present value of a delayed perpetuity is less than a comparable ordinary perpetuity because, based on time value of money principles, the payments have to be discounted to account for the delay.
