Given the following information, compute the effective tax rate for the particular piece of property in percentage terms. Market value of property: $325,000, Assessed value of property: $250,000, Exemptions: $50,000, Taxes paid: $5,363.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.7%

Explanation:

Given: Market value of property is $325000

           Assessed value of property is $250000.

           Exemption: $50000

            Tax paid: $5363.

Now, finding the effective tax rate for piece of property.

Effective tax rate= [tex]\frac{tax\ paid\ on\ property}{Market\ value\ of\ property} \times 100[/tex]

⇒ Effective tax rate= [tex]\frac{5363}{325000} \times 100[/tex]

⇒ Effective tax rate= [tex]1.65\% \approx 1.7\%[/tex]

The effective tax rate for a piece of property is 1.7%
