You are considering a luxury apartment building project that requires an investment of $14,500,000. The building has 60 units. You expect the maintenance cost for the apartment building to be $450,000 the first year and $490,000 the second year. The maintenance cost will continue to increase by $40,000 in subsequent years. The cost to hire a manager for the building is estimated to be $100,000 per year. After five years of operation, the apartment building can be sold for $18,000,000. What is the annual rent per apartment unit that will provide a return on investment of 17%? Assume that the building will remain fully occupied during its five years of operation. The annual rent per apartment unit should be $ ______thousand. (Round to one decimal place.).
You invest in a piece of equipment costing $40,000. The equipment will be used for two years, and it will be worth $15,000 at the end of two years. The machine will be used for 4,000 hours during the first year and 6,000 hours during the second year. The expected savings associated with the use of the piece of equipment will be $28,000 during the first year and $40,000 during the second year. Your interest rate is 10%.(a) What is the capital recovery cost?(b) What is the annual equivalent worth?(c) What is net savings generated per machine-hour?
On a land worth P800,000, an investor constructs a building worth P3,000,000. The owner estimates that the annual receipts from rentals will be P720,000 and annual expenses to cover taxes, insurance and maintenance of the building will be P80,000. The investor estimates that the land can be sold for P1,200,000, the building for P2,000,000 at the end of 20 years. If his money is now earning 15%, compute the rate of return.
Suppose we have four mutually exclusive projects, D1, D2, D3, and D4, whose internal rates of return on incremental investment between the projects is given as follows:IRR (Dl - D2) = 27.62%IRR {Dl - D3) = 14.26%IRR {Dl - D4) = 25.24%IRR (D3 - D2) = 30.24%IRR (D2- D4) = 17.34%IRR (D3 - D4) = 16.14%Which project should be selected at MARR 15%?
You purchased a building five years ago for $100,000. Its annual maintenance expense has been $5,000 per year. At the end of five years, you sold the building for $80,000.

On land worth P800,000 an investor constructs a building worth P3,000,000 containing a theater , a bank, stores and offices. The owner estimates that the annual receipts from rentals will be P720,000, and annual expenses to cover taxes, insurance and maintenance of the building will be P80,000.

If his money is now earning 15% before taxes, what is the rate of return to justify this investment?
You invest in a piece of equipment costing $30,000. The equipment will be used for two years, at the end of which time the salvage value of the machine is expected to be $10,000. The machine will be used for 5,000 hours during the first year and 8,000 hours during the second year. The expected annual net savings in operating costs will be $25,000 during the first year and $40,000 during the second year. If your interest rate is 10%, what would be the equivalent net savings per machine-hour? Solved in Excel is perfered!
