  • In-Kind Rent Revenue is reported in the Financial Statements as calculated savings over Fair Market Value FMV of rent. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2024, third-party research estimated the FMV to be 35.50 per Rentable Square Foot RSF as compared to 19.00 charged per RSF. This is a savings of 16.50 per RSF. To compute, multiply the 1640 Rentable Square Feet times this 16.50 savings to equal 27,060 as reported in the Statement of Activities.
