1. You are an employee of University Investment Consultants, Ltd. and have been given
the following assignment. You are to present an investment analysis of a new small
residential income producing property for sale to a potential investor. The asking
price for the property is $1,250,000; rents are estimated at $200,000 during the first
year and are expected to grow at 3 percent per year thereafter. Vacancies and
collection losses are expected to be 10 percent of rents. Operating expenses will be
35 percent of effective gross income. A 70 percent loan can be obtained at 11 percent interest for 30 years. The property is expected to appreciate in value at 3 percent per year and is expected to be owned for five years and then sold.

2. (Extension of problem 2) You are still an employee of University Consultants, Ltd. The investor tells you that she would also like to know how tax considerations affect your investment analysis. You determined that the building represents 90 percent of value and would be depreciated over 39 years (use 1/39 per year). The potential investor indicates that she is in the 36 percent tax bracket and has enough passive income from other activities so that any passive loans from this activity would not be subject to any passive activity loss limitations. Capital gains from price appreciation will be taxed at 20 percent and depreciation recapture will be taxed at 25 percent.

a. What is the investor’s expected after tax internal rate of return on equity invested (ATIRR)? How does this compare with the before tax IRR (BTIRR) calculated earlier?

b. What is the effective tax rate and before-tax equivalent yield?

c. How would you evaluate the tax benefits of this investment?

d. Recalculate the ATIRR in part (a) under the assumption that the investor cannot deduct any of the passive losses (they all become suspended) until the property is sold after five
