    The property tax rate is $26.67

    Explanation:

    In this question, first, we have to compute the net assessed value which is shown below:

    = Property value - property tax exemption - homestead exemption - veterans - old age - non profits

    = $40,000,000 - $3,000,000 - $1,300,000 - $700,000 - $5,000,000

    = $30,000,000

    Now the property tax equals to

    = (estimated property taxes) : (Net assessed value) * 1000

    = ($800,000 : $30,000,000) * 1000

    = $26.67
