Ans.

Rent Fixation

Cost of land

= 350 x 100

= Rs. 35,000/-

Therefor

Net income expected on the land

= 35,000 x (10/100)

= Rs. 3500 /-

Cost of building

= 110 x 1400

= Rs. 154,000 /-

Therefor

Net income expected on the building

= 154,000 x (12x1/2) / 100

= Rs. 19250 /-

Therefor

Net rent per annum

= Rs. 19250 /-

= Rs. 22750 /-

Let this equal in R

Outgoing

Sinking fund installment – Rs. 800 /-

Repairs per month Rs. 1000 /-

Other outgoing 20% of the gross rent = 0.20 R

Therefor

Total outstanding = 0.20 R + 1800

Therefor

Net income = R – (0.20R + 1800)

= 0.8 R – 1800

Therefor

0.80 R – 1800

= 22,750

Therefor

R = 30687.5 /-

Therefore

R = Rs. 30687.5 /-

Therefore

Monthly rent

= 30687.5 / 12

= 2557.29

Therefore

Monthly rent to be charged = Rs. 2551.29
