Sagot :

Answer:

The correct option is b. 1.01%.

Explanation:

This can be calculated as follows:

Potential gross income = Number of apartment units * Monthly rent per unit = 15 * $3,000 = $45,000

Therefore, we have:

Details                                                                              Amount ($)

Potential gross income (PGI)                                              45,000

Vacancy and collection loss (10% of PGI)                          (4,500)

Effective gross income (EGI)                                              40,500

Operating expenses: 5% of effective gross income        (2,025)

Capital expenditures (10% of effective gross income)      (4,050)  

Net operating income                                                        34,425

Acquisition price = 3,420,000

Going-in capitalization rate = Net operating income / Acquisition price = $34,425 / $3,420,000 = 0.0101, or 1.01%

Therefore, the correct option is b. 1.01%.
