Three things you need to know about the estate tax<\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”20px||11px|||”]What is the estate tax?<\/strong>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”8px||11px|||”]<\/p>\n

The estate tax is a\u00a0<\/span>40% tax on the full market value of all of your assets<\/strong>, including your family business, above an individual exemption amount. It is due to the IRS 9 months from date of death and is only paid by individuals not corporations.<\/p>\n

It was created to fund the cost of World War I and has been kept in place to prevent concentrations of wealth. But that has not worked, as concentrations of wealth still exist and yet families continue to pay the tax.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.7.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”20px||90px|||”]<\/p>\n

How does it affect me?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

It forces families to sell their assets,<\/strong> including their family business, which could eliminate jobs and local charitable giving of the businesses.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

What does it do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you work for a family-owned business, your wages could be cut, or you could be laid off\u00a0<\/strong>as the family is forced to sell the business or borrow to pay the tax. If the business is sold, it will probably be consolidated into a larger company that is not a family business. That will change the culture of the business from one focused on serving the community to one focused on pleasing shareholders.<\/p>\n
