How a Tax Bill is Calculated |
| The appraised value of the property is
multiplied by the assessment rate (set by the
Kansas Constitution) for the assessed value. The
assessed value is then multiplied by the mill levy
for the tax unit where the property is located. This is
the full year property tax amount. |
| If the appraised value (fair market value) of a
single-family residential property is $100,000 and the
fixed percentage of assessment is 11.5%, this would mean
the assessed value would be $11,500. |
|
After all the entities within the
given taxing unit have determined their budget needs and
the County Clerk has calculated the mill levy needed to
accommodate the budgets a tax dollar can be calculated.
For example the mill levy has been determined to 150.
The assessed value of $11,500 multiplied by the mill
levy of 150 (.150) produces a tax amount of $1,725.00. |
