To view estimated levy changes due to property value adjustments or certain exemptions, use the Levy What If screen.  This screen can be used for current, prior, and future year "what if" questions.

For information about "what if" calculations on partial (pro-rated) exemptions, see Estimating Partial (Pro-rated) Exemptions.

1. From the Main Menu, select Inquiry, then Levy What If.  The Levy What If screen will appear.
2. If the account has carried over from a previous screen, go to step 3.  
   
   If the Account Number field is blank, enter the account number, press F8, then go to step 3.
   
   If you need to enter a different account number, press F7, key in the new account number, press F8, then go to step 3.

Note: If you don't know your account number, see Locating an Account.

3. Enter the Year for which you are estimating levy changes.
4. Change the Owner Exemption Information and/or the Property Value section to match what you want to estimate.  
5. Leave the Proration Information fields alone unless you are estimating partial (pro-rated) exemptions.
6. In the Levy Result section, click Calculate Levy to see the New Levy and the difference between the current levy and the potential new levy. Levy increases are shown as positive numbers; levy decreases are negative numbers.

Note:  These changes cannot be not saved in the database, so they can be repeated as often as necessary.
