Answer:
$1,815,000
Explanation:
First we must determine the gross income = $2,000 x 10 units x 12 months = $240,000
minus the vacancy rate = $240,000 x 5% = $12,000
minus the annual expense = $10,200
net income = $240,000 - $12,000 - $10,200 = $217,800
to calculate the maximum amount that the investor should pay we must divide the net income by the expected rate of return = $217,800 / 12% = $1,815,000
When you are calculating a project's price (buying this asset is an investment project), depreciation and debt service are not included in the calculations.
