+Imagine a large, dead tree fell during a heavy snowstorm and landed on the property owner's house. The house suffered severe damages and needs to be re-roofed.\\ Upon reevaluation of the property, its improvement value has been reassessed to $125,000.

+  * The land assessment has not changed, so we can enter the same value as the original value into the "Corrected Land" field.
+  * The improvement assessment //has //changed, so we can enter the new, corrected value of $125,000 into the "Corrected Improvement" field
+  * Notice how the running "Reduction" total is displayed in bold as this is the amount the rebate will be calculated on.
