Calculation method

Calculation method

Capitalization rate = annual net operating income ÷ property value or purchase price × 100%.

Entered fixed decimals use exact rational arithmetic. Money rounds only for display; a supported nonzero amount is never replaced by a misleading zero.

Worked example

Worked example

NOI of 50,000 on a property value of 800,000 gives a 6.25% capitalization rate.

Capitalization rate = annual net operating income ÷ property value or purchase price × 100%.

Decision boundary
