If a home is assessed at 80% of it's value and it's value is $800,000, and the combined tax rate is equal to $42.50 per 1000 dollars of valuation, what is the total annual tax amount ?
Remember to take your time. The solution is posted below the wildlife photograph.

A. $27,200
Let's find out what the assessed value of the home is by multiplying the assessed value rate of 80% or .8 times the value of the home, $800,000, and we see that the assessed value of the home is $640,000.
Now, let's multiply 640 (640 thousand dollar increments) times the tax rate of $42.50 per thousand dollars to see that the total annual tax is $27,200.
