Answer: $5,000

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

tax ratio = 80%

valuation of the house = $250,000

tax rate = $2/$100.

solution:

total annual tax

= $250,000 /$100

= $2500

total tax rate = $2/$100

= $2 * $2,500

= $5,000.

therefore, the total tax due to be payed annually is $5000. This would have not been the case if it has been 80% generally.
