Investment Value and Performance
Direct Capitalization
Investors and appraisers often capitalize the income stream of a property to determine value. Investors capitalize an income streat to determine investment value, appraisers capitalize an income stream to determine market value.
Direct capitalization is a process where you convert a future income stream into a prevent value (PV) by dividing a future income amount by a capitalizaton rate, or cap rate. The cap rate is the ratio between purchase price and the first-year income (net operating income) of the property as shown by the formula below:
R = I / V
where V = Investment Value, I = First Year Income and R = Overall capitalization rate (cap rate).
Measuring Investment Values Using Direct Capitalization
You can also determine the investment value through direct capitalization using the following formula:
V = I / R
At this point you might be asking, "where doest the R or cap rate come from?". The cap rate comes from the market and/or buyer's objectives.
Measuring Investment Performance Using Direct Capitalization
When used to measure investment performance at a given purchase price, solve for the cap rate using the following formula:
R = I / V
Pros and Cons of Direct Capitalization
One of the major advantages of using the cap rate is its simplicity. Also, because it uses Net Operating Income, it accounts for vacancy, credit losses and operating expenses. However, it does not consider financing or tax impact and only looks at a 1 year forecast. To offset the later limitation, you can select a different cap rate for subsequent years.
In a future column I will discuss another method to determine investment value or measure investment performance called the Cash on Cash method.
