John Doe Attachment to 2019 Gift Tax Return Valuation & Discount Explanation

As indicated on Schedule A, Part 3 of Form 709, the Taxpayer gifted 500 Class B non-voting units of Doe, LLC (Doe), a privately-held limited liability company. The 500 unit gift represents a 4% ownership interest in Doe. Prior to the gifting, the donor owned 60% of all combined classes of stock of Doe, representing a controlling interest.

The valuation of $800,000 for the 4% interest reflects the valuation discount determined by an independent appraiser based on the valuation of a 1% non-controlling interest in Doe. The valuation report concludes that a combined discount of 20% is appropriate for a 1% interest due to lack of control and marketability. Attached is a copy of the full valuation report.

PRIOR-MONTH ELECTION UNDER §7520(a) FOR VALUING A CHARITABLE REMAINDER INTEREST

Attachment to Form 709, U.S. Gift Tax Return

John Doe (hereinafter “the taxpayer”), who was 60 years old on May 1, 2019, transferred $1,000,000 in cash to a charitable remainder annuity trust on August 31, 2019. The trust instrument requires that the trust pay the taxpayer quarterly 5.0% of the fair market value of the trust assets contributed to the trust, or $50,000, for a fixed term of 20 years. The charitable remainder beneficiary is the United Way of Cuyahoga County, EIN 33-0000000, located at 1000 Market Street, Cleveland, Ohio. A copy of the trust instrument is attached as Exhibit A. The taxpayer is not terminally ill within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.7520-3(b)(3).

Pursuant to §7520(a), the taxpayer hereby elects to use the §7520 rate for June 2019, (the second month preceding the date of donation), which is 2.8%.

The amount of the charitable contribution claimed is $234,304, computed in accordance with Reg. §1.664-4(e). See copy of the present value calculation details attached.

[Note that the language regarding the age of the donor and the statement that the donor is not terminally ill are only required when the trust is a “lifetime” trust, but were included to illustrate the appropriate language.]

Cleveland, OH 44115 Tax Year Ending 12/31/19

PRIOR-MONTH ELECTION UNDER §7520(a) FOR VALUING A CHARITABLE LEAD TRUST ANNUITY INTEREST

Attachment to Form 709, U.S. Gift Tax Return

John Doe (hereinafter “the taxpayer”), who was 60 years old on May 1, 2019, transferred $1,000,000 in cash to a charitable lead annuity trust on August 1, 2020. The trust instrument requires that the trust annually distribute to qualified charitable organizations 5.213% of the fair market value of the trust assets initially contributed to the trust, or $52,130, for a fixed term of 20 years. The charitable annuity beneficiary is the United Way of Cuyahoga County, EIN 33-0000000, located at 1000 Market Street, Cleveland, Ohio. A copy of the trust instrument is attached as Exhibit A. The taxpayer is not terminally ill within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.7520-3(b)(3).

Pursuant to §7520(a), the taxpayer hereby elects to use the §7520 rate for August 2020, (the month of the donation), which is 0.4%.

The present value of the charitable annuity is $1,000,000, computed in accordance with Reg. §2055(e)(2) and 2522(c)(2). See copy of the present value calculation details attached.

[Note that in this case the interest rate for the month of the gift was the optimal rate. It is questionable as to whether this election is necessary if that is the case, but best practice would be to include it anyway. Also note that the language regarding the age of the donor and the statement that the donor is not terminally ill are only required when the trust is a “lifetime” trust, but were included to illustrate the appropriate language.]
