A technique that enables a person to receive a gift that is not eligible for a gift-tax exclusion, and change it into one that is eligible. Crummey power is often applied to contributions in an irrevocable trust; often in respect to life insurance. In order for the Crummey power to work, the gift must be stipulated as being part of the trust when it is drafted and the gift cannot exceed $12,000 annually per beneficiary of the trust (among other requirements). This is how Crummey power works: When a donor makes a contribution to the irrevocable trust, the beneficiaries must be notified that the funds can be withdrawn within a certain time period (no less than 30 days). When the beneficiary does not withdraw the funds, they go back to the trust and are then subject to the annual gift tax exclusion. The donor will usually inform the beneficiary of his or her intentions to use the Crummey power, so that the beneficiary declines to withdraw the gift when given the opportunity.Crummey power is named after Clifford Crummey who wanted to build a trust fund for his sons, and be able to reap the yearly tax exemption benefits as well.
A loss recognized when assets are sold for a price lower than the original purchase price. A portion of the realized loss may be applied against a capital gain or realized profit to reduce taxes.
When an investment or asset is sold for an amount that is greater than what was originally paid. Recognizing gains on an asset will trigger a capital gains situation, but only if the asset is deemed to be capital in nature.The amount of any capital gain will need to be reported for income tax purposes, and is measured by the selling price minus the purchase price. Recognizing gains on an asset simply means that you made money on selling a piece of property or an investment. Depending on the nature of the asset and the tax laws of your jurisdiction, the gain on the sale may or may not be taxable.
An annuity in which the first payment is paid at a later date in the future. A delayed annuity, similar to a regular annuity consists of a stream of cash flows provided to the annuity holder. However, cash payments do not begin to flow immediately, instead following a predetermined future schedule. Watch: What is An Annuity If Steve was to receive five yearly payments of $100 at the end of each year starting this year, then this payout would be considered an ordinary annuity. On the other hand, if the five payments are deferred for 10 years, this instrument is classified as a delayed annuity. In order to determine the net present value of the delayed annuity, the payments must be discounted to year zero (the present).
A thinning of an employee base that takes place when a company's benefits plan has insufficient funds to cover the expenses associated with paying the employees' earned benefits. This frequently occurs when a company can no longer stay in business, or when the business attempts to avoid or delay closing. once a plan is terminated, all activities, such as benefit accruals and vesting, end. A company may chooses to terminate a benefits plan for many reasons: if it has declared bankruptcy, if it has filed a petition to reorganize in bankruptcy and it is determined that the company cannot reorganize with the plan intact, if it demonstrates that it cannot remain in business unless the pension plan is terminated or if it can demonstrate that the costs associated with the pension plan have become unreasonable due to a decline in the number of participating employees. The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), established by The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), protects the pensions of private defined benefit pension plans, and pays benefits to pensioners of failed pension plans.
