- 59 - 2. Replacement Cost Approach--Retail/Office Under the replacement cost method for the retail/office component of the property, Carneghi estimated the value of the underlying land to be $276,098 (41.83 percent of the $660,000 total land value). He then estimated the replacement cost new of the retail/office component to be $1,790,999. Again, Carneghi relied on the Adamson cost estimate, to which he added 7 percent for “General Conditions”, 5 percent for “Contractor’s Overhead and Profit”, and 12.5 percent for “Developer’s Profit”. Accrued depreciation for physical deterioration was estimated to be 34 percent or $608,940, based on an economic life of 50 years (per the Marshall Valuation Cost Estimation Manual), an effective age of 30 years, and the resulting remaining economic life of 20 years. Carneghi estimated the total value for the retail/office portion of the property under the replacement cost approach to be $1,460,000 (rounded), computed as follows: Total Replacement Cost New $1,790,999 Less: Depreciation (608,940) Total Depreciated Value of Improvements1,182,060 Add: Land Value 276,098 Indicated Market Value by Cost Approach$1,458,158 3.
