Which property pays a reduced levy because they qualify for a partial exemption?

• A. Partially exempt property
• B. Exempt property
• C. Full payment property
• D. Nonexempt property

Answer: (A)

A partial exemption reduces the amount of value that is taxed, so the tax levy is lower. When a property qualifies for only part of its value to be exempt, the taxable value is decreased, and the levy calculated from that smaller amount is smaller. In contrast, exempt property pays nothing because its value is fully shielded from taxation, and nonexempt property is taxed on the full value. A partially exempt property fits the scenario described, giving a reduced levy because part of its value is exempt.
