Question

Accounting

Glen Campbell owns a small office building adjacent to an airport. He acquired the property 10 years ago at a total cost of $608,000-that is, $70,000 for the land and $538,000 for the building. He has just received an offer from a realty company that wants to purchase the property; however, the property has been a good source of income over the years, and so Campbell is unsure whether he should keep it or sell it. His alternatives are as follows:
a. Keep the property. Campbell's accountant has kept careful records of the income realized from the property over the past 10 years. These records indicate the following annual revenues and expenses: Campbell makes a $13,450 mortgage payment each year on the property. The mortgage will be paid off in eight more years. He has been depreciating the building by the straight-line method, assuming a salvage value of $80,700 for the building, which he still thinks is an appropriate figure. He feels sure that the building can be rented for another 15 years. He also feels sure that 15 years from now the land will be worth three times what he paid for it.
