How to Calculate Economic Rent?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Economic Rent.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the agreed rent price ($). In this example, the agreed rent price ($) is given as 2500.
- Next, determine the free market price ($). For this problem, the free market price ($) is given as 2000.
- Finally, calculate the Economic Rent using the equation above:
Re = AP – FMP
The values given above are inserted into the equation below:
Re = 2500 – 2000 = 500 ($)
Example Problem #2:
The variables needed for this problem are provided below:
agreed rent price ($) = 2250
free market price ($) = 2100
Entering these values and solving gives:
Re = 2250 – 2100 = 150 ($)
