US estate tax is assessed on the value of the decedent’s assets at the time of death.
At present there is a $11,400,000+ Federal Estate Tax exemption.
There are several important factors used to determining the taxability of an US estate or trust: taxable gifts, related expenses, charitable contributions, life insurance, annuities, and marital deductions.
