An owner of the ATRIUM Tower Office Building is currently negotiating a five$-$year lease with ACME Consolidated Corporation for $20,000$ rentable square feet of office space. ACME would like a base rent of $$20$ per square foot with step$-$ups of $$1$ per year beginning one year from now.

Required:

a$.$ What is the present value of cash flows to ATRIUM under the above lease terms? $($Assume a $10$ percent discount rate.$)$

b$.$ The owner of ATRIUM believes that the base rent of $$20$ per square foot in $($a$)$ is too low and wants to raise that amount to $$24$ with the same $$1$ step$-$ups. However, now ATRIUM would provide ACME a $$50,000$ moving allowance and $$100,000$ in tenant improvements $($TIs$).$ What would be the net present value of this alternative to ATRIUM?

c$.$ ACME informs ATRIUM that it is willing to consider a $$23$ PSF with the $$1$ annual step$-$ups. However, under this proposal, ACME would require ATRIUM to buyout the one year remaining on its existing lease in another building. That lease is $$15$ per square foot for $20,000$ square feet per year. If ATRIUM buys out ACME's old lease, ACME will not require a moving allowance or Tls$.$ What would be the net present value of this proposal to ATRIUM?
