- Lorene, Inc., owns an apartment complex. The terms of Lorenes lease agreement require new tenants to pay the first and last months rent and a cleaning deposit at the inception of the lease. The cleaning deposit is returned when tenants move out and leave their apartment in good condition. If the apartment is not in good condition, Lorene hires a cleaning company and uses the tenants deposit to pay the cleaning bill, with any excess deposit returned. During the current year, Lorene receives monthly rents totaling 28,000, last months rent deposits from new tenants of 8,000, and cleaning deposits of 7,000. Lorene keeps 5,000 in cleaning deposits to pay the cleaning company bill on apartments that are not left in good shape (the 5,000 is the actual cost that is paid in cash to the cleaning company) and returns 4,000 in deposits. Lorenes expenses related to the rental property (other than the cleaning costs) are 14,000. What is Lorene, Inc.s gross income from the rental property if Lorene is a cash basis taxpayer? an accrual basis taxpayer?In order to induce a tenant to move into your shopping center, you must pay a $1.1 million tenant improvement allowance to fit out their space.

Option A: Rent is $98 per rentable square foot with the lessor paying operating expenses up to $40, lessee responsible for remainder. Operating expenses are $39 in first year and increase by $3 each year b. Option B: Rent is $90 per rentable square foot and will increase by $3 each year. Operating expenses are $40 during the first year and will increase by $1 every year. c. Option C: Rent is $91 per rentable square foot per year and will increase by $2.50 each year. Operating expenses are $45 for the first year and will increase by $3 every year, with lessor covering up to $48.A property owner is evaluating the following alternatives for leasing space in his office building for the next five years: Net lease with CPI adjustments.

- Amy Lloyd is interested in leasing a new Honda and has contacted three automobile dealers for pricing information. Each dealer offered Amy a closed-end 36-month lease with no down payment due at the time of signing. Each lease includes a monthly charge and a mileage allowance. Additional miles receive a surcharge on a per-mile basis. The monthly lease cost, the mileage allowance, and the cost for additional miles follow: Amy decided to choose the lease option that will minimize her total 36-month cost. The difficulty is that Amy is not sure how many miles she will drive over the next three years. For purposes of this decision, she believes it is reasonable to assume that she will drive 12,000 miles per year, 15,000 miles per year, or 18,000 miles per year. With this assumption Amy estimated her total costs for the three lease options. For example, she figures that the Hepburn Honda lease will cost her 36(299) + 0.15(36,000 36,000) = 10,764 if she drives 12,000 miles per year, 36(299) + 0.15(45,000 36,000) = 12,114 if she drives 15,000 miles per year, or 36(299) + 0.15(54.000 36,000) = 13,464 if she drives 18,000 miles per year. a. What is the decision, and what is the chance event? b. Construct a payoff table for Amys problem. c. If Amy has no idea which of the three mileage assumptions is most appropriate, what is the recommended decision (leasing option) using the optimistic, conservative, and minimax regret approaches? d. Suppose that the probabilities that Amy drives 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 miles per year are 0.5, 0.4, and 0.1, respectively. What option should Amy choose using the expected value approach? e. Develop a risk profile for the decision selected in part (d). What is the most likely cost, and what is its probability? f. Suppose that, after further consideration, Amy concludes that the probabilities that she will drive 12,000, 15,000, and 18,000 miles per year are 0.3, 0.4, and 0.3, respectively. What decision should Amy make using the expected value approach?Alexander Industries is considering purchasing an insurance policy for its new office building in St. Louis, Missouri. The policy has an annual cost of $10,000. If Alexander Industries doesn’t purchase the insurance and minor fire damage occurs, a cost of $100,000 is anticipated; the cost if major or total destruction occurs is $200,000. The costs, including the state-of-nature probabilities, are as follows: Using the expected value approach, what decision do you recommend? What lottery would you use to assess utilities? (Note: Because the data are costs, the best payoff is $0.) Assume that you found the following indifference probabilities for the lottery defined in part (b). What decision would you recommend? Do you favor using expected value or expected utility for this decision problem? Why?A building owner is evaluating the following alternatives for leasing space in an office building for the next five years:Net lease with steps.

This option gives the buyer a choice of loan terms in which various combinations of interest rates and discount points are offered. The choice of how many points and what rate is optimal is often a matter of how long the buyer intends to keep the property. Darrell Frye is planning to buy an office building at a cost of $987,000. He must pay 10% down and has a choice of financing terms. He can select from a 9% 30-year loan and pay 4 discount points, a 9.25% 30-year loan and pay 3 discount points, or a 9.5% 30-year loan and pay 2 discount points. Darrell expects to hold the building for three years and then sell it. Except for the three rate and discount point combinations, all other costs of purchasing and selling are fixed and identical.
