Is That Christmas Gift Taxable
Federal gift tax applies to gifts but excludes the first 3000 dollars per recipient per year and gifts to charities. Transfers within three years of death are taxed in the estate. Property gifts carry basis for the recipient as the giver’s cost, while inheritance transfers use the decedent’s date of death value. An example shows estate tax versus gift tax outcomes for a farmer and his daughter.
