2. Consider a property with expected future net cash flows of $25,000 per year for the next five years (starting one year from now). After that, the operating cash flow should step up 20%, to $30,000, for the following five years.
a. If you expect to sell the property 10 years from now for a price 10 times the net cash flow at that time, what is the value of the property if the required return is 12%?
b. Suppose the seller of the building wants $260,000. Should you do the deal? Why or why not? What is the IRR if you pay $260,000? How does this compare to the required return of 12%?
What is the IRR if you could get the seller to accept $248,075 for the property? What is the
NPV at that price?
c. Suppose that the required return on the property is 11% instead of 12% (in comparison to part b). What would the value of the property be? By what percentage has this value changed as a result of this 100-basis-point change in the required return?
