How many redemption calculations must the tax collector provide within a calendar year at no charge?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer: (B)

The rule being tested sets how many redemption calculations a tax collector must provide for free in a single calendar year. This limit is two, which is intended to let taxpayers review and verify their redemption figures without paying a fee, while keeping the tax office’s workload manageable.

Two is the best answer because it establishes a clear, fair cap: it’s enough for initial review and a possible correction or second look, yet it prevents unlimited free requests. One free calculation would be more burdensome for taxpayers who need a second check, and three or four would exceed the intended allowance and could impose unnecessary costs on the agency and other taxpayers.
