a\ Payback period: what is the after tax payback period for your $13k/$60pw reno example? It seems rather long...
b\ Increased equity: I would have thought that increasing (manufacturing) equity is just as important or more important than getting a higher rent. How did it work in your example?
Am I missing something? surely in a discussion on cash flow this is irrelevant. The interest on $13k + gst is less than $20 pw so the increase of $60 pw gives you $40 pw extra cashflow.
Hi Jake D
First entry in your cash flow is MINUS $13,000. So I just wanted to understand how long will it take before the after tax surplus covers the initial investment. Is it 4, 5, 6 years before you actually start making money.
Basically, what is the Internal Rate of Return of this project, after say 5 years? Even if you borrow all the money, you could have invested it in a better opportunity.
What do you think?
