Sammie$$s Club wants to buy a $320,000-$square$-$feet distribution facility on the northern edge of a large midwestern city. The subject facility is presently renting for $$4$ per square foot. Based on recent market activity, two properties have sold within a two$-$mile distance from the subject facility and are very comparable in size, design, and age. One facility is $350,000$ square feet and is presently being leased for $$3\mathrm{.}90$ per square foot annually. The second facility contains $300,000$ square feet and is being leased for $$4\mathrm{.}10$ per square foot. Market data indicate that current vacancies and operating expenses should run approximately $50$ percent of gross income for these facilities. The first facility sold for $$9\mathrm{.}4$ million, and the second sold for $$7\mathrm{.}9$ million.
