Pursuant to the authority vested in me by said Act, I th�r��e, notify said owner, the County Auditor, and County Recorder of County that said land above described has been this day of withdrawn from classification, according to the terms and subject to the provisions of said above mentioned Act, and hereby notify said Auditor, and said Recorder to change the appraisal of said land, as provided by law. CL 208a � � BACK TAX COMPUTATION GUIDE SHEET This form should be used to compute the back taxes owed when a classified forest or a portion of a classified forest is to be withdrawn. Column 1 - Year Start with the present year and work backwards. Since the law specifies that the landowner will not be taxed for more than 10 years, there are only 10 blanks. There could be cases where the forest will be classified for less than 10 years. In this case, you will only use the number of years that the woodland has been in the Classified Forest Programj Column 2- Assessed Value Per Acre Minus $1.00 You will need to check past records in order to determine the appraised values of the land for each of the past 10 years. The assessed value is determined by dividing the appraised value by three. Ir. addition, the assessed value should be reduced by one dollar because the landowner has already paid taxes on a one dollar assessment for each of the years that his land has been in the Classified Forest Program. The adjusted assess- ment should be entered in Column 2• Column 3- Annual Tax Rate You will need to check your records to determine what the tax rate was for each year. This amount in dollars will be entered in Column 3. Column 4- Taxes Due Per Acre Multiply Column 2 times Column 3 and then divide this figure by 100. This should be rounded off to the nearest whole cent. Column 5 - Interest Factor These figures are constant and should not be altered. They have been taken from a standard per annum interest table. Column 6- Amount Due Per Acre for the Year Multiply Column 4 times the figure found in Column 5. This is the amount of tax plus interest owed on one acre of Classified Forest, for one ar- ticular year. The total of this column is the amount which should be paid per acre for the 10 year (or less) period. To complete the process of calculating taxes owed, take the total of Column 6 and multiply it by the number of acres to be withdrawn. This is the total taxes owed for the withdrawal. If there are any questions with this form, contact the service forester for your county. � REPORT OF APPRAISEMENT t*******,t**** � T� , Coun[y Assessor of (:ounty, Indiana certify tha[ the appraisement is on the land herein described and [i�at the fair market value of the whole land classified on the date of was $ per acre; and that the land so described now is wor[ti $ per acre.
