the income capitalization approach is based on what principle
principle of anticipation
this principle states that balance among the factors of production is achieved at the point of diminishing returns
principle of balance
this principle holds that value is achieved and maintained when all elements (land, labor, capital entrepreneurship) are in proper proportion
principle of balance
smaller portions, can be priced per unit of measure, but may be more affordable to Pinoy buyers.
bite-sizing
this principle dictates that changes in market conditions can influence supply and demand for real estate, which consequently impact its value. Such fluctuations are usually based on alterations to a given community, neighborhood, or economic environment
principle of change
this principle can be affected by profit and excess profit can ruin competition. In other words, success breeds competition, and extremely high success breeds excess competition
principle of competition
this principle states that maximum value is achieved with homogeneity and compatibility. Over or under improvement can lead to non-conformity within a property or environment
principle of conformity
this principle holds that maximum value is achieved and maintained when there is reasonable conformity and not monotonous uniformity among properties
principle of conformity
this principle involves the concept that land cannot be valued under one highest and best use while improvements are valued based on another highest and best use
principle of consistent use
this principle stipulates that land should be valued according to its current highest and best use while improvements are valued based on their potential highest and best use
principle of consistent use
a property may remain in transition from one use to another for an extended period and not all appraisals need to reflect immediate changes. This is the ___, and does not conflict with the consistent use principle
interim use concept
this principle states that the value of an element or component depends on its contribution to the whole
principle of contribution
this principle states that the cost of an item does not necessarily equal its contributory value
principle of contribution
this principle states that the value of any component of property is determined by how much it adds to or subtracts from the overall value
principle of contribution
the greater the volume, the less the incremental cost for additional volume
economies of scale
states that larger organizations can benefit from reduced costs associated with certain operations
economies of scale
this concept speaks to the idea that value is determined by more than just the property itself
externalities or external factors
what are externalities or external factors that shape how buyers and sellers interact with each other and determine what kind of value is ultimately achieved
physical / environmental
economic
governmental / political
social
the cycle of life dictates that all material things succumb to deterioration and ultimately disintegrate
four-stage life cycle
the four-stage life cycle has four distinct stages
growth
stability / equilibrium
decline
revitalization
refers to the “most probable use” that is the most reasonable, and legally permissible, physically possible, appropriately justified and financially feasible
Highest and Best Use
For a property to be the optimal use, it must fulfill all criteria and pass the test of highest and best use. This includes being:
Physically possible
Legally permissible
Financially Feasible
Maximally productive
the highest and best use of a property includes conforming with zoning regulations in place as well as other applicable building codes
Legally permissible
the highest and best use of a property must be feasible in terms of its physical attributes and infrastructure. Considerations such as size, utilities, frontage, access, and topography are essential in determining, whether intended development can be achieved on a specific piece of land
Physically possible
the highest and best use of a property that is used for its most profitable purpose
financially feasible
the highest and best use of a property which states that it must generate adequate revenue to justify the costs of construction plus a profit for the developer
financially feasible
highest and best use of a property in real estate which refers to the most profitable and beneficial way of utilizing a property
maximally productive
increasing returns of factors in production enhance income up to a point of maximum returns. Any succeeding addition will result in diminishing returns
increasing and decreasing returns
the value of what you give up pursuing something. It is the cost of the next best alternative that must be forgone to pursue a certain action
opportunity cost
this principle holds that money allocated to a certain use cannot be used for an alternative
principle of opportunity cost
the lesser property’s value is enhanced by the presence of a superior property
progression
the value of a superior property is negatively affected by the presence of an inferior property
regression
this principle states that a prudent buyer pays no more than the cost of an equally desirable substitute
principle of substitution
this principle states that investors should substitute a similar investment for the one they are considering if it offers better returns, lower risk, or more advantageous management capabilities
principle of substitution
this principle is key to the three approaches to real estate valuation
principle of substitution
states that when demand for a product remains stable, the value of similar products in the same area will increase as more are purchased
supply and demand
the supply and demand principle can be summed up by three elements:
supply, demand and price
is the key criterion for valuating any property. Valuation procedures aim to quantify the degree of utility or usefulness of the property valued
utility
is a concept that can be utilized to pinpoint the worth of land by assessing what remains after taking into account the reimbursement for labor, management and capital. This remainder can be attributed as a result of the land itself.
Surplus productivity
is considered the investors return of the land
surplus productivity
what are the agents of production
Capital
Entrepreneurship
Labor
Land
agent of production which includes all cost of buildings and equipment required to keep the enterprise functional. In addition to buildings and equipment, this includes maintenance, insurance, interest, principal, and like items required to maintain and pay for capital instrument

Labor
states that the merging of two or more neighboring land parcels into a single plot with a single use can produce higher value than each individual’s parcel when considered separately
value plottage
the process of merging two or more neighboring land parcels into a single plot
assemblage
desire of a factor in value. Government control of foreign trade is critical for ensuring the prosperity and military security of the state
subjective (Theories of Mercantilists)
a theory where a nation’s wealth is measured by its stash of precious metals like gold and silver. To increase this wealth, governments control foreign trade to boost exports or limit imports. They use tactics like tariffs, subsidies, protective laws, and navigation rules
Mercantilism
They were economist in the 18th century who believed that a nation’s wealth came from land development and agriculture. They thought that all other businesses depended on these two things. They also believed that the government shouldn’t interfere in the economy because it would make things less efficient
Physiocrats
The greatest advocate of capitalism is an economist from Scotland who wrote the Wealth of Nations in 1776. He considered that the term “value” can have two different meanings: it’s usefulness or utility, and the power of purchase it offers when exchanged for other goods
Adam Smith
states that human beings do not value what they use the most, such as water, but choose to pay highly for things that have no real use, such as diamonds
paradox of value
this theory of value emphasizes the importance of understanding the power of supply and demand to determine the value of an object. the value of an object lies in its ability to provide benefit or satisfy a need
Cost Theory of Adam Smith
in this theory, rent is nothing but the producer’s surplus or differential gain, and it is found in land only
Rent Theory of Ricardo
an English classical economist, who first developed a theory in 1817 that explains the origin and nature of economic rent. Value is determined by scarcity
David Ricardo
This theory states that population growth was bound to reduce worker wages, higher rent and prices thus resulting in a lower standard of living
Scarcity Theory of Malthus (Thomas Robert Malthus)
that portion of the produce of the earth which is paid to the landlord for the use of the original and indestructible powers of the soil
rent
this theory states that labor, or human work, creates economic value
Labor Theory of Marx
he thought that labor is key in production and workers should be paid fairly for their work, regardless of their social status. This means that wealth should be distributed based on effort, not status.
Karl Marx
this theory proposed to eliminate unearned land value increases through taxation
Social Theory of Mill (John Stuart Mill)
the Theories of School of Economics has been studying the relationship between market price and value for generations, uncovering laws such as supply and demand, inflation rates, foreign exchange rates, and the subjective nature of economic value. Through their research they have found that with balanced levels of supply and demand in play, the market price is typically equal to its true value
