Cap Rate Formula

I was hoping you guys could help me. This is the cap rate formula I used before I found BP - I thought I would post it now that I have people that can steer me in a better direction if need be. We don't include property management because we self manage and have yet to have a vacancy in 3 years. Am I missing anything?
