*  In  each  of  these  cases  there  is  deducted  from  the  net  rental  (column  D)  10  per  cent  of  the  assessed  valuation  of  buildings
(column  C)  for  interest,  depreciation,  insurance,  and  repairs,  leaving  a  balance  of  income  (column  F)to  be  credited  to  the  land.
The  valuation  of  the  land  (column  3),  expressed  as  thousands  of  dollars  and  fractions  thereof,  multiplied  by  Boston’s  tax  rate
($14.80)  plus  the  net  rent  (column  D)  gives  what  the  user  pays  for  the  use  of  the  land  {net  rent  plus  taxes,  column  H).  This  gross
ground  rent  which  the  user  pays  (column  H)  multiplied  by  twenty,  i.  e.,  capitalised  at  5  per  cent,  gives  the  gross  capitalised
ground  rental  value  of  the  land  (column  I).
