2 Topic 16 Inroducion o Real Esae Valuaion Topic 16 Each Topic in he curriculum is presened as a separae chaper. Inroducion o Real Esae Valuaion Main Poins Discouning and compounding, discouned cash flow valuaion, invesmen decision rules, loan amorizaion, pro forma analysis, and company valuaion. The main poins from he CAIA Sudy Guide are presened for each Topic. L.O. 1. Calculae he fuure value of a lump sum cash flow. The fuure value a ime- of a lump sum cash flow is denoed by FV and is given by: ( r)( r ) K ( r) FV = CF , where CF 0 is he cash flow invesed a ime 0 and r is he ineres rae earned in year. In siuaions where he ineres rae is he same in each subsequen year, ha is, r 1 = r 2 = = r = r, he fuure value may be expressed as: FV = CF 1+ r. 0 ( ) Noe ha he ime unis used for he variables in he above equaions mus be he same. For insance, if he lump sum is invesed each quarer, he ineres rae and he ime used in he Learning Objecive formulas mus represen quarerly unis. This valuaion process uses he saemens noion of he are ime value of money, which mainains ha he value of a dollar received oday is more clearly han se he off value from of a dollar received omorrow. ex in easy-olocae grey boxes. Example 1 Wha is he fuure value of $4000 afer wo years if he annual rae of ineres in year one is 6.5% and he

Example 2 A real esae propery ha generaes $31,000 per year is held for 24 years and hen sold for $2 million. If he annual discoun rae is 3.4% each year, wha is he curren Examples value are of provided he for propery o is owner? all Learning Objecives ha involve a calculaion. Here he cash flows represen an annuiy he same cash flow of $31,000 each year. So, we Each example provides can use he annuiy formula. deailed soluions. 1 1 Final Value Presen Value = CF + n n r r( 1 r) + ( 1+ r) "Noe" secions 1 1 $2,000,000 provide valuable = $31, insigh and guidance ( ) ( ) = $1,399, Noe 1: Noe 2: Problems involving annuiies are more easily solved using he ime value of money funcionaliy of a financial calculaor. 1 The keysrokes for Example 2 are provided below. TI BAII Plus: 24 N 3.4 I/Y 31,000 PMT 2,000,000 FV CPT PV HP-12C: 24 n 3.4 i 31,000 PMT 2,000,000 FV PV The resul can also be aained using he cash flow funcionaliy of a financial calculaor, wih he seps shown below. Noice ha he las cash flow in year 24 is he sum of $2 million and $31,000, and $31,000 is received in each of he prior 23 years. Foonoes offer furher clarificaion. You should use whichever approach is easies or mos logical for you. For presen value problems involving annuiies, he 'ime value of money' ends o be preferable, since you do no have o worry abou remembering ha you have wo cash flows a he las ime period. TI BAII Plus CF (for cash flow workshee) 2nd CLR Work (o clear previous daa) CF 0 : 0 ENTER CF 1 : 31,000 ENTER F 1 : 23 ENTER CF 2 : 2,031,000 ENTER F 2 : NPV 3.4 ENTER CPT => will give NPV = 1,399, HP-12C REG (o clear previous daa) 0 CF0 31,000 CFj 23 nj 2,031,000 CFj Calculaor keysrokes are provided for calculaion problems. Keysrokes are specific o he wo calculaors permied by he CAIA Associaion: he TI BAII Plus and he HP-12C. 3.4 i NPV => will give NPV = 1,399, These are provided so you do no have o ake ime o Now suppose you own a propery for which you do no know he fuure selling price work (which hrough is your calculaor manual! mos ofen he case) or for which he las cash flow is no sabilized bu grows a some rae. The presen value of he propery would again be he discouned fuure cash flows, where, in his case, 1 This se of keys only works for annuiies, no for uneven cash flows. The cash flow keys can be used for any ype of cash flows.

4 Topic 16 Inroducion o Real Esae Valuaion he las se of cash flows would be increasing. If here is no foreseeable limi o he cash flows and here is no paricular growh rae, valuing he propery would involve summing an infinie number of cash flows, as illusraed below. $36,000 $36,000 $40,000 $40,000 $46,000 $58,000 $63,000 PV = L ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) However, if he rae of growh of he cash flows is consan afer some ime, finding he value of he cash flows a ha ime reduces o a simple formula (discussed in L.O. 4) ha makes valuing he propery much easier. In his case, he presen value of he propery reduces o he sum of he CF i discouned cash flows received prior o when he consan growh rae began i and he i= 1 ( 1+ r) discouned "erminal value", which represens he value of all fuure cash flows ha grow a a Keywords and consan rae in perpeuiy. significan erms are CFi indicaed Terminal in Value bold ialics. PV = + i i= 1 1+ r 1+ r ( ) ( ) The simple formula for calculaing he erminal value is presened in L.O. 4. L.O. 4. Calculae he reversion value of a propery. The reversion value, also referred o as he erminal value, of a propery depics he value of all fuure cash flows beyond an invesmen exi dae. I is he value ha invesors can expec o realize upon exiing he invesmen a some fuure dae. I is usually esimaed by applying a cap rae o a sabilized ne operaing income (NOI). If he NOI sabilizes a year and hen grows a a given rae in perpeuiy, he reversion value of he invesmen propery would be given as: NOI = r g + 1 Reversion Value a end of year, where NOI +1 is he NOI in year + 1, r is he required reurn of he cash flows afer he exi dae, ha is, afer he cash flows have sabilized, and g is he growh rae of he NOI afer he sabilizaion dae. So, he erminal value in a given year is 'nex year's' NOI divided by r g. Example 1 Suppose you expec o sell your propery a he end of seven years and you projec ha he propery will generae a ne operaing income of $4,800,000 in year 7, which will grow a 1.5% per year hereafer. If he appropriae discoun rae for he cash flows from he propery is 14%, wha is he propery's expeced reversion value a he end of year 7? Formulas are clearly explained and he variables defined.
