the exemption. If you do not file on time, Florida Law provides for the loss of the $25,000 exemption.

number, and year acquired. Examples: bulldozers, draglines, mowers, balers, tractors, all types of dairy equipment,

of Fair Market Value." The amount reported is your estimate of the current fair market value of the property.
