Q

A 10 unit apartment building has a net income of $ 5,000 annually, per unit. If the purchasers wish a 10% return on their investment, how much should they be willing to pay for the property?

A

$500,000. The value of the property = net income /rate of return. Thus value = $50,000 ($5,000 per unit x 10 units) / .10 = $500,000.

Q

An investor buys a single family rental property with an initial basis of $150,000. Assuming 30 year straight-line depreciation, what is the basis of the property after 10 years?

A

The annual depreciation would be $5,000 ( 150,000 / 30 ), thus 10 years would be $50,000 ( 10 x 5,000 ). Therefore the basis after 10 years is 150,000 - 50,000 = $100,000.
