How Inheritance Tax is Calculated
Inheritance tax is calculated based on the total value of the deceased person’s estate.
In real terms, this means that everything in the deceased person’s estate is taken into account when calculating inheritance tax.
Assets often taken into account when calculating inheritance tax include the family home, bank deposits, and any company shares.
With this in mind, the tax liability of inheritance tax can be substantial. It’s imperative that inheritance tax protection should be factored into the overall estate inheritance tax strategy.
