Answer to Question 1

a. Required property tax levy: 7,000,000 + 70,707 = 7,070,707
b. Tax rate per 100 of net assessed valuation:

Total assessed value at start of 2009 65,000,000
Less: Reduction due to appeals  200,000
City property, not taxable 1,400,000 Senior citizen exemptions 1,000,000 2,600,000
Net assessed value of property 62,400,000

Required property tax levy / Net assessed value of property =
 7,070,707 /  62,400,000 = .1133

Tax rate per 100 of net assessed valuation = 11.33

c. Tax rate on property assessed at 35,000 = 35,000 X .1133 = 3,965.50
