/// # Write an application that helps landowners determine what their property tax will be for the #
/// current year. Taxes are based on the property’s assessed value and the annual millage rate. The #
/// established millage rate for the current year is $10.03 per $1000 value. Homeowners are given a #
/// $25,000 exemption, which means they may subtract $25,000 from the assessed value prior to #
/// calculating the taxes. Enable users to enter the property address and the prior year’s assessed #
/// value. The township has decided to increase all properties’ assessed value 2.7% for the current #
/// year to add additional monies to the school budget line. Provide meth- ods to compute and return #
/// the new assessed value and the proposed taxes for the current year. Provide another method that #
/// displays the formatted values. #
