Answer: indicated value of the subject property using direct capitaliation is = $390,351 = $390,000

Explanation:The abstracted going-in capitalization rates from the four properties will be calculated using

The going-in cap rate which is first-year net operating income (NOI) divided by the initial investment or purchase price

For Comparable 1: 55,000 / 500,000 = 0.110

Comparable 2: 50,400/420,000 = 0.120

Comparable 3: 53,400 / 475,000=0.112

Comparable 4: 69,000/600,000 = 0.115

Calculate the Simple Ave. we have 0.110+0.120+0.112+0.115/4 = 0.114

The simple average of the four comparable cap rates is 0.114. Therefore the indicated value of the subject property is $390, 351 gotten from

($44,500 / 0.114) = $390,351 = $390,000
