aera aL iE DISCOUNTED CASH Aken Ra PLera] Pes Bo) What is a DCF? + Method to value real estate by taking all future projected cash flows and discounting them back fo time zero (date of purchase) using a predetermined discount rate + The theory behind discounted cash flow analysis is known as the “time value of money.” which is the idea that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar in the future due to its ability to earn interest over time. * Which would you rather choose? 1. I'll give you $100 now. 2. I'll give you $100 a year from now. Mathematically, the formula for calculating an asset's present value is: N NPV » ne (l+r)n Sh essron = Sos What is a DCF? Three variables are needed to calculate net present value: 1. Cash Flow Per Period 2. Discount Rate 3. Number of Periods NPV = y: et 7 (_1+r)n n=0 ss Sst Cash Flows A property’s cash flows are determined by forecasting them for a specific holding period and they can be broken down into two parts, recurring cash flows and the terminal cash flow. RECURRING CASH FLOWS: Also known as 6 proforma and it incorporates the income and expenses associated with a given property. Income is derived from tenant lease payments or Unit sales and expenses are estimated by reviewing o combination of historic property performance and current market condifions. TERMINAL CASH FLOWS: Because we are evaluating a property for investment purposes, it is implied that it will be sold at some point in the future. The income earned from the salle is known as the “terminal cash flow" and it is calculated by taking the cash flow for the final year in the holding period and “capping it” using an estimate for the then market cap rate, = om Discount Rate Discount rate is the return that an investor requires fo take on the level of risk implied in the transaction. How do you determine_a discount rate? Choosing a discount rate is based on analysis of several variables that may be difficult to quantify including: — Likelihood of Projected Cash Flows Occurring — Property Type — Location ~ General Economic Conditions Despite the number of variables, they all have one thing in common: risk. The higher the perceived risk in the real estate transaction, the higher the return required by the investor, and thus the higher the discount rate. The lower the perceived tisk in a real estate investment, the lower the discount rate. oe soars Hold Periods Discounted cash flow analysis is completed based on annual cash flows. Foran investment property, a "holding period" must be estimated and it is equivalent to the number of years that an investor plans to “hold” the property. Because discounted cash flow analysis has a time component, the number of years in the holding period will have a material impact on the final result. ‘Se escrow = Sosa Example 1 How much is an investor willing to pay for the following property: * Projected Cash Flow: $10,000 * Required Rate of Return: 8.00% * Holding Period: 3 Years $10,000 + $10,000 | $10,000 Equation: Nev = (ry 08), * (a#.08)2" (1+.08)3 Spreadsheet Function: nv = (8.00%, $10,000, $10,000, $10,000) Regardless of the calculation method, the result is the same. The net present value of these cash flows is $25,771 and it represents the price an investor may be willing to pay for this stream of income if they require an annual return of 8.00%. ” Soares Example 2 Assume that the annual cash flows and the discount rate are the same at $10,000 per year and 8.00% respectively. But, this time, let's assume that the cash flow in year 5 will be “capped” at the discount rate of 8%, giving us a “terminal value.” The cash flows are illustrated in the table below: Annual Gash Flow $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 Terminal Cash Flow $0 30 30 so $125,000 Total Cash Flow $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 $135,000 = Soieias Example 2 The equation(s) for calculating the present value are the same, but with more variables: $10,000 , $10,000 , $10,000, $10,000 , $135,000 Equation: NPV = ye08). * (toa (+08)3* (+08) (a+08)5 ‘Spreadsheet Function: nrv = (@ 00%, $10,000, $10,000, $10,000 $10,000,5135,000) Notice that the year 5 cash flow is the sum of the annual recurring cash flew and the terminal cash flow of $125,000 (calculated as $10,000/.08) The net present value of this series of cash flows is $125,000, inclusive of the sale in year five. Remember that the choice of a discount rate will have a material impact on the net present value of the same series of cash flows. For example, one investor may look at this property and decide that itis riskier, so they require a return of 9%. In this case, the net present value is reduced to $120,137. Or another investor may look at it and see less risk and they require an annual retum of 6%, increasing the net present value to $135,530. - gem Paes aL aU) AMORTIZATION TABLE eee Rect) What is an Amortization Table? “Amortize” To pay off (an obligation, such as a mortgage) gradually usually by periodic payments of principal and interest. + Amortization is a way to pay off debt in equal installments that include varying amounts of interest and principal payments over the life of the loan. + An amortization table is a fixed table that shows how much of your monthly payment goes toward interest and principal each month for the full term of the loan.
