Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a theater generates $100,000 per year in net income and it is expected to grow at 2% per year.

The selling price of the theater if someone offers to buy will be:

= net income × (1+g) / (r-g)

= $100,000 × (1 + 2%) / (10% - 2%)

= $100,000 × (1.02) / (0.08)

= $1275000
