Consider a simple, homogeneous monocentric city with a circular shape. If the location rent premium at the center is $6,000 per year per acre, the rent at the edge of the city is $10,000 per year per acre, and the density is 3 persons per acre. Supposing that the annual transportation cost per person per mile of distance from the CBD is $200 (round-trip), and if the population increases by 10% (density and transportation cost do not change), what will be the new rent at the center of the city per year per acre? $16,300 $15,250 $16,600 $15,000
can explain step by step, TQ Suppose a proposed new road to be constructed in North Carolina between Raleigh and Morehead City will lower the average cost per trip by car from $5 to $4. Currently, 500,000 trips are made between the two cities per year. An estimate indicates that, all other things being equal, the new road will increase the number of trips per year to 600,000. Calculate the annual benefits to motorists of the new road as based on their willingness to pay.
One of the companies is setting up a project to build housing units in which the investment volume is estimated at one million dollars to build (100 houses), the price of the house is (20,000) thousand dollars to be paid in equal installments for a period of (4 years), the annual costs are estimated at (50) thousand dollars. Calculate the simple rate of return, the payback period and the internal rate of return for the project, bearing in mind that the discount rate is the lowest (8%) and the highest (12%) and whether the project is accepted or rejected.
Consider a plot of land. You can construct an office building at a cost of $5m or a hotel at a cost of $7m. For the office building you expect an NOI in year 1 of $240,000 and an NOI in year 2 of $400,000. For the hotel you expect an NOI in year 1 of $360,000 and an NOI in year 2 of $500,000. After year 2, the NOI will grow at 4% for both properties. Your discount rate is 10% in both cases. What is the estimated value of your plot of land?
You consider buying a lot on which you will build a small apartment complex. The asking price for the lot is $2,000,000 and the estimated cost to build the apartment complex is $5,000,000 (construction should take one year). One year from the date you intend to purchase the lot the city is going to make an important decision regarding the use of the land just across from your lot. You believe that there is a 35% chance that the decision would be favorable to you and a 65% chance that it would be unfavorable. In case of a favorable or unfavorable outcome your complex should generate an NOI of $400,000 or $300,000 respectively. For simplicity, you may assume that at any time you can sell your complex for a 5% CAP and your required rate of return is 8%. a. Calculate the value of the lot using the traditional approach.b. Calculate the value of the lot using the real option approach.c. Should you buy the lot?d. In case that you decided to buy the lot, should you build the apartment complex…

Suppose you have an internship at a chemical factory. Your supervisor asks you to calculate the net present value of an expansion project. Suppose the expansion costs $5 million now and $1 million next year. The plant will produce revenues of $4 million in the second year and $4 million in the third year. Calculate the net present value (or the present value of the benefits less than the present value of the costs) at a 4% discount rate. Enter your answer in millions of dollars with two decimal places.
2. You plan to purchase an office space in Chamblee's Chinatown for $50,000 at the end of year 2021. You estimate that by renting out that office space, you will receive a stream of rental income for the coming eight years at the end of each year as shown in below. After eight years, you estimate that you can still sell the office space for $45,000 at the end of the eighth year. Is this project a good investment if you project that the normal rate of return in this line of business is 12%? How about if the general rate of return is 15% ? 8%? Year 1 $6,000 Year 5 $7,500 Year 2 $6,500 Year 6 $8,500 Year 3 $7,000 Year 7 $8,500 Year 4 $7,500 Year 8 $8,500 3. Based on the information provided in Step 2 above, compute the Internal Rate of Return for the investment. 4.
