Your firm plans on purchasing an existing rental property with a
remaining service life of
30 years. Recently, the tenants signed a 5-year lease, fixing the
rental income at $300,000 for the next
five years. Rental income is expected to increase by 5% every five
years over the remaining life of the
property. Based on this increase, the annual rental income would be
$315,000 for years 6 through 10,
$330,750 for years 11 through 15, $347,288 for years 16 through 20,
$364,652 for years 21 through 25,
and $382,884 for years 26 through 30. Operating expenses, including
income taxes, are estimated be
$70,000 for the first year increasing by $6,000 each year
thereafter. At the end of the property service
life, you expect selling the lot on which it stands for net amount
of $550,000. Alternatively, you could
invest in a mutual fund that earns at the rate of 10% per annum,
what would be the maximum amount
you would be willing to pay for the property at the present
time?
