i think you would simply multiply the rateable value by the multiplier, which is 65 cents to the dollar.

25000 * .65 = 16250.

note that this multiplier looks very much like a busineess multiplier.

that is applied to a place of business.

the domestic rates appear to be much lower.

from what i understand, the rateable value is similar to an assessment of the value of your property for tax purposes.

you then pay the government a certain amount of money based on the tax rate, or multiplier, of that assessed value.

here's a couple of references that i found that might be helpful.

this first one is a calculator.

it's interesting that the business tax was pretty close to .65, although not right on.

it looks like taxable rates and multipliers are used in the united kingdom.

here's another reference that explains a little about what the rateable value is all about.

there are other reference on the web that you can find by doing a search.
