IV.
a) A real estate agent purchases a vacant land of extent 5 hectares at a cost of Rs. 50 per m2. He divides the land into building plots of 500 m2 area after leaving 30% of the land for roads, parks etc. Expenses for the development is at Rs. 200 per m2 and technical charges at 5% of cost price. Work out the selling price of each plot if the agent expects 25% profit for his investment. (10)
OR
b) A colonizer desires to purchase a piece of land measuring 1,50,000 m2. After developing this land for housing colony he wants to sell plots of 500 m2 each after proving necessary roads, parks and other amenities, at the rate of Rs. 300 per m2. The colonizer wants a net profit of 25%. Work out the maximum price of land at which he may purchase the land. (10)
V.
a) A RCC framed two-storied building is standing on a plot of land measuring 900 m2. The plinth area of each storey is 400 m2. The future life of the structure is 60 years. It fetches a gross rent of Rs 10,000 per month. Work out the capitalized value of property on the basis of 6% net yield. For sinking fund, 3% compound interest may be assumed. Cost of land may be taken as Rs 700 per m2.
The outgoings are as under.
(i) Repair and maintenance-5% of gross income.
(ii) Taxes-12% of gross income. (10)
OR
b) A government employee drawing a salary of Rs 10,000 per month occupy a quarters having a plinth area of 120 m2. Prevailing cost of construction per m2 is Rs 10,000. Calculate and suggest the amount of monthly house rent payable by the employee. (10)
