Two approaches to value
were utilized in estimating the market value of the subject
property. The Market Approach was utilized in estimating the
land value only. However, income estimates and the capitalization
rate are shown on the preceding pages and are based upon market
analysis.
The values indicated by
the two approaches to value are as follows:
Cost Approach ..........................
$149,200,000.00
Income Approach ........................ $144,000,000.00
Normally, the sale of a
hotel/casino on a going concern basis is based upon the income
flow generated by that casino. For this reason the Income Approach
to value is considered to be by far the superior valuation indicator in the case of the subject.
The Cost Approach to
value substantiates the valuation indicated by the Income Approach
to value.
In addition to acting as
value indicators, the two approaches to value prove the feasibility
of the project. With a valuation indicated by the Income Approach
of $144,000,000.00 and an estimated cost of construction being
substantially less than this, not including cash for bonds and
operation, the feasibility of the project is proven.
Considering data analyzed,
described and set out in this report,
the estimated market value of the subject property, in fee, as of October 30,1975 and
assumed to have been completed in substantial compliance with
the preliminary plans contained in the Addenda of this report,
and assuming complete
compliance with Clark County Building Codes is:
$ 144,000,000.00
