Problem 2

A real estate investor has the following information on an apartment building:

Purchase Price is $1,125,000 with acquisition costs of $35,000
33,600 leasable square feet

Initial rent of $1.5/sq. ft. per month and will increase at the beginning of each year for 5 percent per year. For example, the first year rent from month 1 to month 12 is $1.5/sq. ft., the 2nd year rent from month 1 to month 12 is $1.575 ($1.5*(1+5%)), and so on.
Vacancy rate of 5% of gross rent per month.

Expected increase in value is 50% in total when sold in year 3 (36 months), 5% selling expenses
75% depreciable with monthly depreciation.
Investor's tax rate is 35%, and capital gain tax rate is 15%.

Questions:

1. Compute equity after-tax cash flows from month 1 to month 36 for each financing choice.
