Investment Analysis Metrics
-
Broker's Rate of Return: Ignores cash flows after the initial year and financing arrangements. It does not consider taxes.
-
Income Multipliers: A preliminary analysis tool to identify potentially unappealing investment opportunities. Not a sufficient measurement of a property's value on its own; it relates to after-tax cash flow.
-
Equity Dividend Rate: Doesn't factor in financing structures or the effect of income taxes on investment value; only considers future cash flows. It does not incorporate income tax considerations. Expresses before-tax cash flow in relation to equity cash outlay.
-
Operating Ratio: Highlights the relationship between net operating income and operating expenses, showing the percentage of gross income consumed by these expenses. Expresses operating expenses as a proportion of effective gross income.

Overall Capitalization Rate: Expresses net operating income as a percentage of property value. It's the reciprocal of the net income multiplier.
-
Gross Income Multiplier: Reflects the relationship between a property's price and its gross income. The reciprocal of the capitalization rate.Requires more data than net income multipliers.
