1. What is the nominal acreage in the W 1/2 of the SE 1/4 of a standard section?Real Estate Calculations. Open choices and explanation.
  1. A.40 acres
  2. B.80 acres
  3. C.160 acres
  4. D.320 acres

Answer B: 80 acres

A quarter section is 160 acres, and one-half of it is 80 acres.

Why each choice works or fails

  • A. Wrong. Divides by 4 twice, as if it were a quarter of a quarter.
  • B. Correct. 640 / 4 / 2 = 80 acres.
  • C. Wrong. Stops at the quarter section.
  • D. Wrong. Applies only the 1/2 to the whole section.

Work it through

  1. 640 / 4 = 160 acres
  2. 160 / 2 = 80 acres

Rule to remember: Start with 640 acres and apply every aliquot fraction.

2. A rectangular parcel measures 220 feet by 396 feet. How many acres does it contain?Real Estate Calculations. Open choices and explanation.
  1. A.0.03 acres
  2. B.2 acres
  3. C.18 acres
  4. D.20 acres

Answer B: 2 acres

Multiply length by width for square feet: 220 x 396 = 87,120. Then divide by 43,560 square feet per acre, which gives exactly 2 acres.

Why each choice works or fails

  • A. Wrong. Uses the 1,232-foot perimeter instead of the area.
  • B. Correct. 87,120 / 43,560 = 2 acres.
  • C. Wrong. Divides by 4,840, the square yards in an acre.
  • D. Wrong. Divides by 4,356, a dropped digit from 43,560.

Work it through

  1. 220 x 396 = 87,120 square feet
  2. 87,120 / 43,560 = 2 acres

Rule to remember: Find square feet first, then divide by 43,560.

3. In a non-leap year, closing is April 1 and the buyer owns closing day. How many days are allocated to the seller from January 1?Real Estate Calculations. Open choices and explanation.
  1. A.89
  2. B.90
  3. C.91
  4. D.275

Answer B: 90

Count actual days: January 31, February 28, and March 31 make 90 seller days. April 1 is closing day and the buyer owns it, so it is not added.

Why each choice works or fails

  • A. Wrong. Drops one day of March.
  • B. Correct. 31 + 28 + 31 = 90.
  • C. Wrong. Also gives April 1 to the seller.
  • D. Wrong. 275 is the buyer's days, not the seller's.

Work it through

  1. January 31 + February 28 + March 31
  2. Seller days = 90

Rule to remember: Count actual days and assign closing day exactly once.

4. At a Georgia closing, the seller signs the deed, but the buyer's lender wire has not yet reached the closing attorney's escrow account. The attorney may pay the seller's proceeds:Finance and Closing. Open choices and explanation.
  1. A.Immediately, because the seller has signed and delivered the deed
  2. B.Only once the lender's wire lands in the escrow account
  3. C.Only after the deed is recorded and returned by the clerk
  4. D.Only after a three-day waiting period that applies to all sales

Answer B: Only once the lender's wire lands in the escrow account

Georgia's good funds law bars a settlement agent from disbursing until it holds collected funds, such as a completed wire. Signing the deed does not put money in the escrow account, so the seller waits for funding.

Why each choice works or fails

  • A. Misconception: signing equals funding. The attorney cannot pay out money the account does not yet hold.
  • B. Correct. Disbursement follows receipt of good (collected) funds, such as a completed wire, in the escrow account.
  • C. Misconception: recording comes first. Recording commonly follows disbursement and is not a precondition to paying the seller.
  • D. Misconception: blending the Closing Disclosure timing or refinance rescission rules into sales. No general three-day wait applies.

Rule to remember: A Georgia settlement agent may disburse closing proceeds only after good (collected) funds are in its escrow account.

5. A seller prepaid a $1,200 annual insurance premium and closing falls exactly at the midpoint of the policy year. The buyer assumes the policy. The adjustment is:Real Estate Calculations. Open choices and explanation.
  1. A.A $600 credit to the seller for the unused portion
  2. B.A $1,200 credit to the seller for the full premium
  3. C.A $600 credit to the buyer for the used portion
  4. D.No adjustment, since insurance is not prorated

Answer A: A $600 credit to the seller for the unused portion

The seller paid for coverage she will not use, so the buyer reimburses her for the remaining half: $600 credit to the seller, debit to the buyer. Prepaid items credit the seller; items paid in arrears credit the buyer.

Why each choice works or fails

  • A. Correct. The unused half of a prepaid premium is reimbursed to the seller.
  • B. Wrong. $1,200 would repay coverage the seller already used.
  • C. Wrong. A buyer credit applies to an item the seller has not yet paid.
  • D. Wrong. A prepaid item the buyer takes over is routinely prorated.

Work it through

  1. $1,200 / 2 = $600 unused
  2. Seller prepaid, so credit seller $600 and debit buyer $600

Rule to remember: Prepaid items credit the seller for the unused portion; items paid in arrears credit the buyer.

The Georgia-specific distinction

A Georgia place name, license status, brokerage engagement, security instrument, tax, or closing fact can change the rule that decides it. Treat state facts as signals, not decoration.

Worked result example

When a buyer already has a written engagement with another broker, first identify the existing relationship. Do not interpret the agreement as a lawyer and do not jump directly to writing a competing engagement.

Common exam traps

  • Answering the story instead of the final question.
  • Skipping role and timing words.
  • Choosing an action that is reasonable but not first.
  • Ignoring the Georgia fact that changes the national answer.

Ready to move on?

  1. Score the set before opening notes.
  2. Explain the winning rule without repeating the answer choice.
  3. Classify every miss as knowledge, distinction, wording, math setup, or timing.
  4. Repair the weakest official area, then answer a fresh set on another day.
  5. Move on only when the result is stable and guesses are being marked as gaps.

Assessment integrity

The questions are original and mapped to the current PSI outline. This preview introduces the assessment; the complete version is in Pass Georgia. PSI says practice exams help candidates become familiar with general question types, but they do not replace education and a good practice score does not guarantee an examination outcome. This page reports evidence, not a pass probability.
