finance Micah is going to buy a rental house to begin building his real estate wealth. He is not sure how much to pay for the property because it needs work. He surveys the area and find that a home in good condition sells for $225,000 and rents are $1250 per month. He will spend the first year spending $35,000 on remodeling and receive no rent. In the second year he will begin collecting rent and will also install a new HVAC system for $18,000. He will sell the home in five years for the current full market value. Micah wants a 15% annual return on his money to take this risk and go to all the trouble. HOW MUCH SHOULD MICAH PAY FOR THE HOME? (Answer in dollars). (Hint: Use the following format in a financial calculator or Excel. Fill in the Cash Flows (CF). Cash Flow 0 (CF0) = 0. Use 0 because we do not know how much he should pay up front for the home. Stating CF0 may not be necessary in Excel. CF1= CF2= CF3= CF4= CF5= i= NPV=___________________

3. You have just taken a job that requires you to move to a new city. In relocating, you face the decision of whether to buy or rent a house. A suitable house costs $300,000 and you have saved enough for the down payment. The (nominal) mortgage interest rate is 10% per year, and you can also earn 10% per year on sav- ings. Mortgage interest payments are tax deductible, interest earnings on savings are taxable, and you are in a 30% tax bracket. Interest is paid or received, and taxes are paid, on the last day of the year. The expect- ed inflation rate is 5% per year. The cost of maintaining the house (replacing worn- out roofing, painting, and so on) is 6% of the value of the house. Assume that these expenses also are paid entirely on the last day of the year. If the maintenance is done, the house retains its full real value. There are no other rele- vant costs or expenses. a. What is the expected after-tax real interest rate on the home mortgage? b. What is the user cost of the house?…
2. Wally wants to buy a house instead of renting, and has found a bank that is ready to loan him a sizable amount at 5% interest per year. He has identified a house that he would like to live in for 15 years. He thinks that with his carpentry skills he can easily upgrade the house to sell at the end of 15 years for $275,000. Presently, with the economy not doing so well, Wally believes that all he can afford to pay for the house every month-end is the rent that he presently pays his landlady of $750 per month. How much can he expect from the bank if he plans to use the entire amount that he will receive on selling the house after 15 years to make a balloon payment to the bank?
