We are proposing an addition of an existing medical office building (MOB) to our portfolio, there are 4 tenants. Tenants 1 and 2 occupy 15,000 and 8,000 square feet respective, at $19.00 per square foot. Tenant 3 has 10,000 at $20.00 and tenant 4 has 4,000 at $22.00. All the leases are presently expected to continue through the 4-year holding period and have CPI increases estimated at 2% per year. The asking price for the property is $3,000,000 of which 75% of the value would be allocated to the building, and vacancy and collection losses are projected at 10% of rents. First-year operating expenses include $120,000 (i.e. taxes, insurance, utilities, maintenance, etc.) and management estimated at 5% of EGI. Our tax rate is 36% and all loses are recognized in the year they are incurred. Capital gains and depreciation recapture are both taxed at 15%. A 70% loan can be obtained at 9.5% for 25 years. Both the property value and operating expenses are expected to grow 4% per year and our projected holding period is 4 years. Selling expenses are projected at 4% of the gross sales price. The reinvestment rate for cash flows is 7% and the discount rate is 12%.

1. What is the before-tax IRR and MIRR to the investor under the proposed mortgage arrangement? Comment on the differences for the investor yield estimates you just calculated.
2. What is the after-tax IRR, and the effective tax rate under this scenario?
3. Calculate the terminal cap rate based on the information above.
4. What is the NPV to the equity of the project?
5. Assume the 12% discount rate holds. Examine the equity BTIRR under the following sample of LTVs and interest charges.

@ 65%	7%
@ 70%	10%
@75%	12%
@80%	15%

Does this project have positive or negative leverage at the given LTV levels?
