Annual rental income: 1,800,000 Annual Operating expenses : 1,200,000 Available mortgage rate: 6% Financing percentage: 90% Required holding period: 5 years Investor tax rate: 25% Based on the income approach, the value of the investment is closest to : A. $4m B. $5.455m C. $6.133m D. $8.696m I understand how to calculate NOI, but how would you calculate caprate?
Any one figure this one out as yet?
I know the answer is A because I remember this question 15% should be used…give a minute and i’ll figure it out
I think 15% was given. Its from free CFAi sample exam. cfaiscomplex - did you print save all the questions ? Can you please send them to me too… let me know if you can, I’ll tell you my email. Thanks
I have tried several combinations but can’t get it and Sorry thunder…I didn’t print the questions, I just happened to remember this one, amazing though ah!
Where did you guys get 15%?
if A is the answer, and your NOI is 600,000=1,800,000-1,200,000, than 600,000/4,000,000=15%

There has to be at least one more variable that is provided with the question; Preferably the Market Value of property, but the market cap rate will do…
Someone in the forum had emailed me the exam question. I guess the question is not complete.

Also, taxes are deducted from NOI, hence it would be $450,000, not $600,000.
I know alex, I’m trying for 2 days now to get the answer and I cannot come up with the 15%.

Incorrect. NOI does not take taxes into consideration (but does take real estate taxes into consideration). It only looks at the annual cash flow and operating expenses.
15% was given in the problem, i remember this question taxes are not included in noi
This is like and IRR/NPV question: how much would I be willing to pay today, for an investment that would produce me EBIT of 600K each of the next 5 years, considering that I have a tax bracket of 25% and a cost of borrowing of 6%, and I borrow 90% of the money that I invest today? If the market cap would have been given that’s easy. If not, I don’t know how to solve it.
once again the cost of capital (15%) was given in the CFAI practice exam question. I distinctly remember this question. stop trying to solve this problem otherwise.
