Nearly -
everyone
should seek a prompt re-
view of his estate plan so
it will conform with re-
quirements of the Tax
Reform Act of 1976.
The law has radically
changed the rules for de-
termination of the basis
of all property acquired
from decedents. Accurate

ALL THE ROTT BRO

and complete record-
keeping now becomes a
must. Without such re-
cords, the burden on
property owners, execu-
tives and trustees poses a
real and cumbersome
problem.
When a property owner
dies, his or her executor
or trustee must deter-
mine the acquisition date
and the deceased's origi-
nal or adjusted cost basis
for every asset that will
be subject to the federal
estate tax.

With complete records,
the expense of administer-
ing an estate plan can be
substantially reduced.
Such records must be
quickly available in order
to assure the prompt and
efficient administratidn of
an estate.

_Under the old rule,
there was a step-up in
cost basis at death to the
value of the property at
death. The tax reform act
eliminates this "step-up -
so that unrealized ap-
preciation on property
occurring during a tax-
payer's lifetime may be
subject to capital gains
taxes when the ap-
preciated property is sold
by -the heir of the - de-
ceased.
Property held on Dec.
31, 1976 will be given a
new cost basis at death
equal to the Dec. 31, 1976
value which is deter-
mined in such a way as to
make appraisals as of
that date unnecessary.
This significant change in
the basic rule may have a
serious effect on the es-
tate's need for liquidity.
This is just one of the
reasons for review— with
complete and accurate
records readily available.
