Real Estate Math

A Virginia property's assessed value is $450,000. The property is appealing their assessment claiming it is overvalued by 10%. If successful, what would the new assessed value be?

A$400,500
B$405,000✓ Correct
C$425,000
D$440,000

Explanation

If overvalued by 10%, the correct value is $450,000 ÷ 1.10 = $409,091. But a 10% reduction from assessed value would be $450,000 × 90% = $405,000. The answer is $405,000.
