W8: Real Estate Investing
Discuss
the advantages and disadvantages of Real Estate investing.
Real estate investment has always been seen as one of the most dependable methods for creating enduring wealth. Lucrative real estate investments provide consistent cash flow, the possibility of
value increase, and diverse tax advantages. Nevertheless, similar to every financial venture, real estate entails a distinct array of advantages and disadvantages that prospective investors have to carefully evaluate. An attractive feature of investing in real estate is the possibility of a consistent
flow of rental revenue. Regardless of whether you choose to invest in residential or commercial properties, rental income may provide a steady stream of revenue that can be used to pay bills or spend on more properties. Real estate investors have the opportunity to benefit from a range of tax benefits and deductions. Mortgage interest, property taxes, and other maintenance charges are often eligible for tax deductions, resulting in a decrease in your total tax obligation.
Real estate is illiquid, and the process of selling a property may be time-consuming. The absence
of sufficient liquidity might be a drawback when compared to more liquid investment options such as stocks or bonds. Although real estate often exhibits lower volatility compared to the stock market, it is nonetheless subject to the impact of market swings. During periods of economic decline, there is a likelihood of property devaluation and a rise in vacant properties, both of which may have a negative effect on your rental revenue and total investment returns. Engaging in real estate investment may be advantageous when approached with careful consideration and smart planning. It provides the opportunity for consistent earnings, growth in value, and advantages in terms of taxes. Nevertheless, there are some obstacles that come with it,
such as substantial upfront expenses, the burden of property management, and the uncertainties of the market.

You are a financial planner. One of your clients is 40 years old and wants to begin saving for retirement. You advise her to put $5,000 a year into the stock market. You estimate that the market's effective return will be, on average, 12 percent a year. Assume the investment will be made at the end of the year. What is the value of her savings after 20 years.You are a financial planner. One of your clients is 40 years old and wants to begin saving for retirement.

31. An analyst is considering the purchase of a Government of Canada bond that will pay its face value of $10 000 in one year's time, but pay no direct interest. The market interest rate is 4% and the bond is being offered for sale at a price of $9400. The analyst should recommend
purchasing the bond because the purchase price is more than its present value and is therefore profitable.
not purchasing the bond because the buyer could earn an additional $376 by investing the $9400 elsewhere.
not purchasing the bond because the purchase price is less than its present value.
purchasing the bond because the purchase price is less than its present value and is therefore profitable.
not purchasing the bond because the buyer could earn an additional $224 by investing the $9400 elsewhere.

Consider two projects: Project A currently costs $15 million, which is to be paid this year. The returns are $10 million in one year and $8 million in two
years. Project 8 currently costs $13 million, again to be paid this year. The returns are $9 million in one year and $8 million in two years.
At an interest rate of 6%, the net present value of Project A is roughly
while the net present value of Project B is roughly
Suppose investing in one project eliminates the opportunity to invest in the other. If the interest rate is 6%, Project

Q2)
2, You invest $3,000 for three years at 12 percent.
a. What is the value of your investment after one year? Multiply $3,000 × 1.12.
b. What is the value of your investment after two years? Multiply your answer to part a by 1.12.
c. What is the value of your investment after three years? Multiply your answer to part b by 1.12. This gives your final answer.
Combine these three steps by using the formula to find the future value of $3,000 in 3 years at 12 percent interest.

The market interest rate is 9 percent and is expected to stay at that level. Consumers can borrow and lend all they want at this rate. Consider each of the following situations.
1) Would you prefer a $500 gift today or a $540 gift next year?
2) Would you prefer a $100 gift now or a $500 loan without interest for four years?
3) Would you prefer a $350 rebate on an $8000 car or one year of financing for the full price of the car at 0 percent interest?

Q2: Three students have each saved $1,000. Each has an investment opportunity in which he or she can invest up to $2,000. Here are the rates of return on the students’ investment projects:
Harry 5 percent
Ron 8 percent
Hermione 20 percent
If borrowing and lending is prohibited, so each student uses only his or her saving to finance his or her own investment project, how much will each student have a year later when the project pays its return?
Now suppose their school opens up a market for loanable funds in which students can borrow and lend among themselves at an interest rate r. What would determine whether a student would choose to be a borrower or lender in this market?
Among these three students, what would be the quantity of loanable funds supplied and quantity demanded at an interest rate of 7 percent? At 10 percent?
At what interest rate would the loanable funds market among these three students be in equilibrium? At this interest rate, which…

All the investment vehicles that you can use in your investment plan are traded in the securities markets in the form of stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments. There are physical places such as the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) or the electronic networks such as NASDAQ (National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations) where investors trade these securities.
Securities markets can be divided into primary and secondary markets. When securities are bought and sold by investors who did not originally purchase the issued security, the transactions take place in the market.
Within the arena of security trading, the secondary market plays an extremely important role. The secondary market can be divided into the broker market and dealer market.
For each of the following statements, indicate by checking the appropriate boxes, whether each statement is true of broker markets, dealer markets, both markets, or neither market.

Hua Xing runs a lawn care service. Buying an additional riding lawn mower will cost $3,000
but would allow her firm to earn $1,000 of additional revenue each year for the next four
years. She expects marginal efficiency of capital to be at least 10%. Which statement is an
accurate description of this investment opportunity?

Hua Xing should make the investment because turning $3,000 into $4,000 provides a
rate of return of 33%.
b) Hua Xing should not make the investment because it has a negative net present value.
c)
Hua Xing should not make the investment because it provides only a 5.16% return on
investment.
Od) Hua Xing should make the investment because the internal rate of return exceeds
10%.
