This disclosure exists precisely because buyers who budget based on the seller's current tax bill are often shocked to receive a much larger supplemental bill weeks or months after moving in, reflecting the difference between the seller's assessed value and the new purchase price assessment. Answer A is the legally and factually correct response to this question as written, regardless of the answer key notation.
