Accounting

An investor is considering the acquisition of a "distressed property" which is on Northlake Bank's REO list. The property is available
for $201,400 and the investor estimates that he can borrow $160,000 at 4.5 percent interest on an interest-only loan and that the
property will require the following total expenditures during the next year:
Required:
a. The investor is wondering what such a property must sell for after one year in order to earn a 20 percent return (IRR) on equity.
b. The investor is now concerned that if the property does not sell, he may have to carry the property for one additional year. The
investor believes that he could rent it (starting in year 2) and realize a net cash flow before debt service of $1,620 per month.
However, he would have to make an additional $7,200 in interest payments on his loan during that time, and then sell. What
would the price have to be at the end of year 2 in order to earn a 20 percent IRR on equity?
