Answer key: Cap Rate worksheet

  1. 1. Capitalization rate: 11.27%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect

      $55,000.00×1−0.06=$51,700.00
    2. Subtract the yearly running costs. What's left is net operating income (NOI), the profit before loan payments

      NOI=$51,700.00−$12,250.00=$39,450.00
    3. Divide that profit by the property's value to see what it earns per dollar of price. As a percent, that's the cap rate

      $39,450.00$350,000.00=0.11271429=11.2714%
  2. 2. Capitalization rate: 3.51%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect

      $32,000.00×1−0.05=$30,400.00
    2. Subtract the yearly running costs. What's left is net operating income (NOI), the profit before loan payments

      NOI=$30,400.00−$19,000.00=$11,400.00
    3. Divide that profit by the property's value to see what it earns per dollar of price. As a percent, that's the cap rate

      $11,400.00$325,000.00=0.03507692=3.5077%
  3. 3. Capitalization rate: 6.13%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect

      $42,500.00×1−0.04=$40,800.00
    2. Subtract the yearly running costs. What's left is net operating income (NOI), the profit before loan payments

      NOI=$40,800.00−$13,200.00=$27,600.00
    3. Divide that profit by the property's value to see what it earns per dollar of price. As a percent, that's the cap rate

      $27,600.00$450,000.00=0.06133333=6.1333%
  4. 4. Capitalization rate: 5.19%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect

      $45,000.00×1−0.07=$41,850.00
    2. Subtract the yearly running costs. What's left is net operating income (NOI), the profit before loan payments

      NOI=$41,850.00−$18,500.00=$23,350.00
    3. Divide that profit by the property's value to see what it earns per dollar of price. As a percent, that's the cap rate

      $23,350.00$450,000.00=0.05188889=5.1889%
  5. 5. Capitalization rate: 8.15%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect

      $55,000.00×1−0.06=$51,700.00
    2. Subtract the yearly running costs. What's left is net operating income (NOI), the profit before loan payments

      NOI=$51,700.00−$13,000.00=$38,700.00
    3. Divide that profit by the property's value to see what it earns per dollar of price. As a percent, that's the cap rate

      $38,700.00$475,000.00=0.08147368=8.1474%
  6. 6. Capitalization rate: 8.45%

    1. Start with full-occupancy rent, then take off your vacancy allowance. This is the rent you expect to actually collect
