Analytical Proof & Invariants

Machine Precision
Governing Mathematical Formula:
NPV = ∑ [CF_t / (1 + Discount Rate)^t] - Initial Investment

Step-by-Step Mathematical Derivation

1
Discounted Cash Flow Summation

PV = ∑ [CF_t / (1 + r)^t], where r is your target discount rate (hurdle rate).

2
Net Economic Surplus (NPV)

NPV = PV of all future cash flows - Initial Capital Investment. NPV > 0 indicates the property yields returns above your required cost of capital.

3
Profitability Index (Benefit-Cost Ratio)

Profitability Index PI = PV of Cash Inflows / Initial Outflow. PI > 1.0 confirms positive economic value creation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What discount rate should be used for real estate DCF? +
Most commercial real estate investors use a discount rate between 8.0% and 12.0%, composed of the risk-free rate (10-year Treasury) plus a risk premium for asset illiquidity, tenant rollover risk, and debt leverage.
What does a negative NPV mean? +
A negative NPV does NOT mean the investment loses money! It simply means the investment earns less than your required discount rate. If your hurdle is 10% and the property earns 8%, NPV is negative.
