Death Tax Changes

Uploaded by : Essays-Now.com

4 pages in length. Death tax - also known as estate tax - is a form of taxation that only occurs after one is deceased and one's assets have been calculated. Depending upon how one's assets are left prior to one's demise, the amount of death tax to be paid is determined as a percentage on an incremental scale. The current status of death tax stands through the year 2008, after which time that scale changes again for each of the next two years with 2010 reflecting an appeal of the tax and 2011 starting over at $1,000,000 from that point forward without any further changes to the law.
