Answer to Problem 83P

The actual dollar after tax rate of return is 16.17%.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Net annual income to the owner is 10.5% of the market value.

Purchase amount of the property is $150000.

Cost of the land is $46500.

The selling price 59 months later is equal to the original purchase price.

The income tax rate is 35%.

Calculation:

Calculate the before tax cash flow for year 1.

BTCF1=f×150000 ...... (I)

Here, the inflation rate is f.

Substitute 8% for f in Equation (I).

BTCF1=0.08×$150000=$12000

Calculate the before tax cash flow for year 2.

BTCF2=f×150000+(f×BTCF1)+(f1×BTCF1) ...... (II)

Here, the inflation rate is f and the market interest rate is f1.

Substitute 10% for f, 2% for f1 and $12000 for BTCF in Equation (II).

BTCF2=$12000+(0.10×$12000)+(0.02×$12000)=$12000+$1200+$240=$13440

Calculate the before tax cash flow for year 3.

BTCF3=BTCF2+(BTCF2×012) ...... (III)

Substitute $13440 for BTCF2 in Equation (III).

BTCF3=$13440+($13440×0.12)=$15053

Calculate the before tax cash flow for year 4.

BTCF4=BTCF3+(BTCF3×0.12) ...... (IV)

Substitute $15053 for BTCF3 in Equation (IV).

BTCF4=$15053+($15053×0.12)=$16859

Calculate the before tax cash flow for year 5.

BTCF5=BTCF4+(BTCF4×0.12) ...... (V)

Substitute $16859 for BTCF4 in Equation (V).

BTCF5=$16859+($16859×0.12)=$18882

Calculate the cost of home.

HomeCost=PCLC ..... (VI)

Here, the property cost is PC and land cost is LC.

Substitute $150000 for PC and $46500 for LC in Equation (VI).

HomeCost=PCLC=$150000$46500=$103500

Write the expression to calculate the market value plus 12% per year.

MV+12%=((MVn1)+(0.12×MVn1)) ...... (VII)

Here, the market value of the precious year is MVn1 and the market value of the present year with 12% increase is MV+12%.

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 1.

Substitute $150000 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($150000)+(0.12×$150000))=$168000

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 2.

Substitute $168000 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($168000)+(0.12×$168000))=$188160

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 3.

Substitute $188160 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($188160)+(0.12×$188160))=$210775.2

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 3.

Substitute $188160 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($188160)+(0.12×$188160))=$210739

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 4.

Substitute $210739 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($210739)+(0.12×$210739))=$236028

Calculate the market value plus 12% per year for year 5.

Substitute $236028 for MVn1 in Equation (VII).

MV+12%=(($236028)+(0.12×$236028))=$264351

Make the table to calculate the MARCS 5 year depreciation using values for residential property.

Year Initial Cost (a) MARCS rate (b) Depreciation (c)(a×b)
0
1 $103500 3.485% $3607
2 $103500 3.636% $3763
3 $103500 3.636% $3763
4 $103500 3.636% $3763
5 $103500 3.485% $3607

Make the table to calculate the after tax cash flow.

Year BTCF (a) Market Value of property +12% Depreciation (b) TaxableIncome (c) Income taxes (d)(c×0.35) ATCF (e)(a+d)
0 $150000 $150000 $150000
1 $12000 $168000 $3607 $8393 $2938 $9062
2 $13440 $188160 $3763 $9677 $3387 $10053
3 $15053 $210739 $3763 $11290 $3951 $11101
4 $16859 $236028 $3763 $13096 $4584 $12275
5 $18882 $264351 $3607 $245469

The ATCF5 is $254469 as mentioned and it will be equal to the original price of the property.

Thus the selling price of the property is $261991.

Write the expression to calculate the capital gain.

Capitalgain=(SellingPrice)(Costoftheproperty) ..... (VIII)

Substitute $261991 for SellingPrice and $150000 for Costoftheproperty in Equation (VIII).

Capitalgain=$261991$150000=$111991

Calculate the tax on capital gain.

Taxoncapitalgain=0.02×$111991=$22398

Write the expression to calculate the recaptured depreciation.

RD=MACRdepreciation

Substitute $18503 for MACRdepreciation in Equation (IV).

RD=$18503

Calculate the tax on recaptured depreciation.

TaxonRD=0.35×$18503=$6476

Calculate the total tax on disposal.

Totaltaxondisposal=(Taxoncapitalgain)+(TaxonRD) ....... (IX)

Substitute $22398 for Taxoncapitalgain and $6476 for TaxonRD in Equation (IX).

Totaltaxondisposal=$22398+$6476=$28874

Calculate the rate of return.

P=A(1+i)n1(1+i)i ....... (X)

Here, the property cost is P and the land cost is A.

Substitute $150000 for P, $46500 for A and 4.92 for n in Equation (X).

$150000=$46500(1+i)4.921(1+i)4.92i

Solve the equation for the value of i.

i=0.1617×100%i=16.17%

Here, the value of n has been taken 4.92years because the rate of return has to be calculated for 59months which is equal to 4.92years.

Conclusion:

The actual dollar after tax rate of return is 16.17%.

Answer to Problem 83P

The after tax return for the owner is 21.9%.

Explanation of Solution

Year ATCF (a) ATCF Year 0 (b)(a×1.07n)
0 $150000 $150000
1 $9062 $8469
2 $10053 $8781
3 $11101 $9061
4 $12275 $9365
5 $245469 $344283

Calculate the after tax rate of return in year 0.

Write the expression to calculate the after tax rate of return.

P=A1(1+i)1+A2(1+i)2+A3(1+i)3+A4(1+i)4+A5(1+i)5 ...... (XI)

Here, the present worth is P, the after tax cash flow is A, the rate of return is i.

Substitute $150000 for P, $8469 for A1

$8781 for A2, $9061 for A3, $9365 for A4 and $344283 for A5 in Equation (XI).

$150000=$8469(1+i)1+$8781(1+i)2+$9061(1+i)3+$9365(1+i)4+$344283(1+i)5

Salve for the value of i

i=0.219=0.219×100%=21.9%.

Conclusion:

The after tax return of the owner is 21.9%.
