Property Tax Calculations using the Equalization Factor Suppose that the town of Pawnee, IN (not a real town) and Cook County have the exact same property tax system, that is, Pawnee uses an equalization factor (EF) to ensure an equal assessment among all counties in Indiana. Local woodworker, Ron Swanson, owns and occupies a home in Pawnee that has a market value of $250,000. Since this property is his main residence, he qualifies for a homeowner/homestead exemption of $15,000. In Pawnee, the assessment level is 75% and the equalization factor is 2.3. The total millage rate is 60 mills.
