In 2002, Gert made a $5,000,000 taxable gift. The 2002 gift tax on $5,000,000 was $2,275.800. Gert was entitled to a unified credit of $345,800, resulting in a gift tax of $1,193,000. The marginal tax rate in 2002 is 50%. Assume Gert dies in 2013 when the credit is $2,045.800 and the marginal rate is 40%, the tax on $5,000,000 would equal $1,945,800 before subtracting any credit. In arriving at

Gert's estate tax liability, what is the amount subtracted for 1992 gift taxes paid?

What will be an ideal response?


$1,600,000 = $1,945,800 ($5,000,000 taxable transfer at current year rates) - $345,800 (where $1 million is the exemption equivalent for 2002).
