Measures for vertical and horizontal uniformity

MeasurePurposeRecommended standard (IAAO/other)InterpretationObtainedComments
CODHorizontal equity20% for residential, and 20% income-producingThe COD measured how consistent the assessments are relative to the market values (price). Horizontal equity is acceptable when the COD is less than the nominated threshold (20%). Where it is above the nominated threshold, it suggests horizontal inequity19,33%Acceptable
PRDVertical equity (fundamental)0.98–1.03Where the PRD is < 0,98, high-value properties are over-assessed. Where the PRD is > 1,03, higher value properties are under-assessed1,02Acceptable
PRBVertical equity (refined)−0.05 to +0.05PRB between −0,05 and + 0.05 is acceptable. PRB > +0.05 suggests a regressive bias (high-valued properties are under-assessed). PRB < −0,05 suggests a progressive bias (high-valued properties are over-assessed)−0,01Acceptable
