There's a single formula, same as anywhere else. The formula is applied to the assessed value of your home. If you feel the assessment is wrong, you can go to the County and discuss where/what you feel is in error.
But that formula, whatever it is, is applied the same to your house as it is to everyone else in your county.
I'm in Lake County, so my formula is probably different from the one used in your county. My assessment is different as well, since I'm in a manufactured home and you are probably not.
