In this problem we have to find the annual property taxes. First off we have to find the assessed value. In order to do that we have to take the market value which is $400,000 and then multiply it by the assessment rate which is 25%. So $400,000 x .25 = $100,000. Now that we the assessed value we must subtract the deductions. So $100,000 - $25,000 = $75,000. The next step is to utilize mills. The mill rate is the amount of tax payable per dollar of the assessed value of a property. So we have to multiply the assessed value by the mill rate which is $75,000 x .02275 = $1,706.25 So the annual property taxes on the property is $1,706.25.
