Tom takes a loan of $60,000 at 4% annual interest to purchase a property worth $100,000. He earns an annual income of $10,000 after expenses but before interest and income taxes are deducted. If the income tax rate is 30%, calculate Tom's leveraged return on the real estate investment

Based on the given data, Tom's leveraged return on the real estate investment is 13.3%.

A leveraged return means an investment return on equity partially financed with debt.

Investment in property = $100,000 - $60,000

Investment in property = $40,000

Interest = $60,000 * 4%

Interest = $2,400

Net income after tax = ($10,000 - $2,400) * (1 - 30%)

Net income after tax = $7,600 * 0.70

Net income after tax = $5,320

Leveraged return = Net income after tax / Investment in property * 100

Leveraged return = $5,320 / $40,000 * 100

Leveraged return = 0.133 * 100

Leveraged return = 13.3%

Hence, Tom's leveraged return on the real estate investment is 13.3%.
