Aclient has requested advice on a potential investment opportunity involving an income-producing property. she would like you to determine the internal rate of return of the investment opportunity based on the following information: expected holding period: years; end of first year noi estimate: $113,900; noi estimates in subsequent years will grow by 5% per year; price at which the property is expected to be sold at the end of year 5: $1,615,205.22; current market price of the property: $1,475,667.71.
a. -15.30%
b. 8.60%
c. 9.86%
d. 10.00%

The correct answer is D. 10.00%

Explanation:

To get internal rate of return we use excel or a spreadsheet.  See document attached.

Make the cash flow to solve this problem.  At moment 0 we have the investment cost , in this case $1.475.668 (negative) From period 1 to period 5, we have different incomes o benefits.  Salvage value is 1.615.205, we are going to get it at moment 5 (positive).

Then, we calculate the Net cash flow that is the difference between benefits and cost.

We use all the result (positive and negative) in Net cash flow to get the IRR.

Net Present Value (NPV)768907

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)10,00%

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
