A property's assessed value in Georgia is $120,000 (40% of fair market value). What is the fair market value?
A$240,000
B$300,000✓ Correct
C$340,000
D$400,000
Explanation
If assessed value = 40% of FMV, then FMV = Assessed Value ÷ 0.40 = $120,000 ÷ 0.40 = $300,000. To solve this, multiply the relevant values: $120,000 at 40%.. The correct answer is $300,000.. This is a common calculation on the Georgia real estate exam.
