QUESTION 15
If you are in a 25% marginal tax bracket and do not plan to make any capital expenditures in your first year of ownership, what is your tax liability in the first year?
Explanation / Answer
12. Cap rate = NOI / purchase value
THus, initial cap rate is $175,000 / $2,000,000 = 8.75%
13. Interest reduction we receive in the first year is 5%*1.5 million = $75,000
14. Land is not depreciated, instead building can be depreciated. Now if the land is valued at $625,000 and total purchase price was $2 million, value of building is $1,375,000 and assuming 40 years straight line depreciation, total depreciation for the first year will be $1,375,000 / 40 = $34,375
15. EBITDA = NOI = $175,000. Depreciation is $34,375. So EBIT = $140,725
Now interest payment is $75,000 and so PBT = $65,725
Interest @25% = $16,431.25 in the first year.
