Expert Solution

Solution:

We can evaluate purchase decision on the basis of Net present value as follow:

Net Present value=Present value of annual surpluses-Purchase value of Property

Present value of annual surpluses=Annual surplus-Present Value annuity factor@15% for 15 years

=€ 21,650*5.84737

=€ 126,595.56

Net Present Value=€ 126,595.56-€ 140,000=-€ 13,404.44

Since the present value of annaul surpluses(Benefit) is less the purchase price of investment property(Cost),hence it is not beneficial to purchase the investment property.

b)Now we have the required rate(discount rate) of 8%.

Present value of annual surpluses=Annual surplus-Present Value annuity factor@8% for 15 years

=€ 21,650*8.559479

=€ 185,312.72

Net Present Value=€ 185,312.72-€ 140,000=€ 45,312.72

Since Since the present value of annaul surpluses(Benefit) exceeds the purchase price of investment property(Cost),hence it is beneficial to purchase the investment property when the interest rate is 8%.
