18.1.2 Rental (investment) method and rateable value for property tax

The rental method values a let property as net income × YP, where net income = gross rent − outgoings; rateable value applies the same idea to property tax — the annual rent a property might reasonably fetch from year to year, less a statutory allowance for repairs.
