A building is appraised at $1 million. This estimate is based on forecasted net rent of $100,000 per year discounted at a 10% cost of capital [PV = 100,000/ 0.1 = 1,000,000]. The rent is the net of repair and maintenance costs and taxes. Suppose the building is currently uninhabitable. It will take one year and $250,000 of work (spent at the end of the year) to bring it into rentable condition. How much would you be willing to pay for the building today? Explain your calculations.
