As a small contractor I shop at home depot (or lowes) primarily for convenience when needing numerous items for different trades.

Multiple new plant constructions ongoing around the area, bringing numerous potential renters for the next 10 years.

Furthermore, he has numerous prior felony convictions, etc.

Also note that the annual ROI will constantly change on a financed purchase as the numerator will be different for every 12 month period you look at.Cash on Cash return (CoC) = cash flow / cash into the investment- Using the above numbers again for a cash purchase it is easy.CoC = $6/$100K = 6% (Same as the ROI)Using the financed example we'd figure out the annual cash flow by taking the monthly ROI of $500 less the monthly mortgage payment of $362.35 to get a monthly cash flow of $137.65 multiplied by 12 to get an annual number of $1651.80.

There are numerous exam prep test solutions.
