4 Section 6166 Installment of Estate Tax OVERVIEW THE CONCERN As the owner of a closely held business, liquidity for your estate could be a matter of particular importance to you. If your business represents a large portion of your estate, you may be concerned about your heirs being forced to sell the business or its assets to pay estate taxes. In examining the ways to minimize estate taxes, you may also be considering how best to create liquidity to help heirs meet the estate tax obligation and other cash needs. THE SOLUTION If your estate qualifies, consider the costs and benefits of using Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 6166 to temporarily defer estate taxes, and subsequently to pay them on an installment basis. Then consider how the liquidity available from a life insurance policy can be used in combination with or even as an alternative to the tax deferral option under IRC. HOW DOES IT WORK? The installment election under is available to the estate of a US citizen or legal resident, where the value of the interest in the closely held business 1 accounts for more than 35% 2 of the adjusted gross estate. In order to take advantage of estate tax deferral under this Section, your estate would file an election no later than the timely-filed estate tax return 3. Your estate would elect to defer payment of estate taxes due on the proportional value of the business 4. The election can push back payments of tax by up to 5 years, and then enables your estate to pay those taxes in up to ten equal installments after the deferral. Deferment applies only to estate tax due. Interest on that tax must be paid annually. See IRC (f). Your estate can therefore acquire up to 14 years 5 to pay. A portion of the estate tax 6 incurs interest throughout the installment period at 2% and is known as the 2% portion. Tax exceeding the 2% portion incurs interest at 45% of the current regular tax underpayment rate 7. Client's Total Estate Client Gifts Premiums To an ILIT Other Assets Business (Greater Than 35% of Total Estate) Estate Taxes Paid At Death Beneficiaries Beneficiaries Elect to Exercise Section 6166 for the Business portion the Estate (s of Estate Taxes over 14 Years) Death Benefit Proceeds used To Help Pay Estate Taxes IRS ILIT Purchases Life On Client(s) ILIT 8 1 (b)(1) defines this interest (in all cases in an entity carrying on a trade or business) as (1) an interest as a sole proprietor; (2) a partnership interest if either 20% or more of the total capital interest in such a partnership is included or the partnership had 45 or fewer partners; or (3) stock in a corporation if either 20% or more of the voting stock is included or the corporation had 45 or fewer shareholders. Passive ownership interests do not qualify the level of activity of the deceased owner distinguishes an active business that qualifies for the election from non-qualifying passive ownership. See Rev-Rul , and Private Letter Ruling Due to the variety of possible circumstances, special rules apply to valuation, including where the business is a sole proprietorship, or when combination of ownership in more than one business is permissible, or when the business is a farm. 3 The IRS determines on a case-by-case basis whether a surety bond from the estate or a special lien under provisions of 6324A is needed and appropriate. See Estate of Roski v. Commissioner, 128 T.C. 113 Dec 56,896, and Notice Formal regulations from the IRS are still pending. 4 The election will apply only to the tax owed on the value of the closely held business in proportion to the value of the entire adjusted gross estate. 5 Since the first installment of tax is due at the same time as the last installment of interest, the total possible payment period is 14 (not 15) years. IRC (a)(3) and (f). 6 This is the tax on the indexed value of $1 million in 1998, or the first $1.33 million for deaths in 2009, less the applicable credit amount. 7 The rate charged on balances owed to the IRS. For individuals and small corporations, it is the short-term applicable federal rate (AFR) plus three percentage points. This rate changes quarterly. 8 Trusts should be drafted by an attorney familiar with such matters in order to take into account income and estate tax laws (including the generation-skipping tax). Failure to do so could result in adverse tax treatment of trust proceeds. Page 4 of 16 February 02, 2010

5 Section 6166 Installment of Estate Tax OVERVIEW WHERE LIFE INSURANCE FITS IN There are obvious benefits to making the election, but certain aspects of the tax deferral and installment option under that Section make life insurance an extremely attractive complement or even an alternative to. While helps to temporarily relieve the tax burden that results from ownership of the business, it does not apply to other assets in your estate. This means that your estate could still face an estate tax burden that it would not be able to defer under. The IRS has also begun to emphasize the bond or lien requirements of that Section, which it could seek to exercise against not only the business itself but also against the underlying assets of the business. A surety bond can be prohibitively expensive or may be unavailable, and an IRS lien could affect the business future ability to borrow. Against this background, life insurance performs some important functions. First, it is self-completing. It can provide cash when your estate needs it, regardless of whether your estate qualifies for statutory relief under. In particular, the death benefit supplies the liquidity your estate needs to meet ALL its estate tax obligations, not only those that qualify for tax deferral and installment payments under. Second, even if your estate qualifies for relief under that Section, life insurance can help to relieve future liquidity pressures. There would be no need to identify sources of funding for future estate tax installments. Third, gifting of premiums during your lifetime will reduce the size of your taxable estate. You may consider establishing an irrevocable life insurance trust 8 (ILIT) to purchase and own the policy on your life. With a properly drafted trust and if premiums are within gift tax exclusion limits, your annual gifts of policy premiums to the ILIT may reduce your taxable estate with little or no gift tax consequences. BENEFITS Tax Deferral Under When a timely election is made under, estate taxes may be deferred temporarily up to 5 years, with the balance paid in installments, over a maximum of 14 years. Under, a low 2% interest rate applies to a portion of the outstanding tax owed for the duration of the installment period. Life Cash from the life insurance policy eliminates the need for a forced sale of the business or other assets to meet the estate tax obligation. The purchase of a life insurance policy may be a tax-efficient complement to the tax deferral election under. Life insurance provides your estate the liquidity it needs exactly when it is needed, regardless of whether your estate qualifies for tax deferral under. Life insurance may be a more cost-efficient method of paying estate taxes than the tax deferral provided for under the election. Life insurance eliminates uncertainty about how the future tax installments will be paid. Premium payments on the life insurance policy reduce the taxable estate. 8 Trusts should be drafted by an attorney familiar with such matters in order to take into account income and estate tax laws (including the generation-skipping tax). Failure to do so could result in adverse tax treatment of trust proceeds. Page 5 of 16 February 02, 2010

6 Section 6166 Installment of Estate Tax OVERVIEW CONSIDERATIONS A cost-benefit analysis should be conducted to compare the relative cost to the estate over time in terms of today s dollars ( present value ) of choosing the election and/or the purchase of a life insurance policy. Estate taxes attributable to your other estate assets do not qualify for special treatment under. Your estate must qualify to utilize the tax deferral opportunity under. One requirement is that the interest must be in an active trade or business 9. Gifts made within 3 years of death will be considered for the 35% of adjusted gross estate test 10. When considering tax deferral under, the implications for other planning options, including an Installment Sale of the Business to a Defective Trust, must be taken into account. Tax deferral under may require security or a lien against the business or its assets. Interest paid under a arrangement does not qualify as an administrative expense and is not deductible on either the estate tax return or on the fiduciary income tax returns. The right to defer payment can be lost in a number of circumstances, even after installment payments have begun. These could include default on payment of either interest or principal, as well as disposal of the qualifying business interest, or the withdrawal from the business of money or property attributable to that interest. Aspects of this module are based on existing tax laws which could change in the future. YOUR SITUATION The following pages illustrate the relative cost to the estate in terms of the present value of dollars spent. Four basic options can be considered for a projected year of death against a range of assumed factors, including a given rate of inflation and a given rate of estate tax: In the first of these, no prior planning has been done, so estate taxes are payable within 9 months of death. The second option assumes election of benefits with estate taxes paid over the maximum period. In the third case, estate planning employs a life insurance policy to pay estate taxes at the time due. The final option blends the benefits of with life insurance. 9 The IRS views the level of the interest-holder s activity as the significant factor in determining if the tax deferral benefits of are available to the estate. 10 IRC 2035(c).

16 Section 6166 Installment of Estate Tax GLOSSARY OF TERMS 2% Amount. Also called "2% Portion". Under the installment option, a certain portion of the deferred tax incurs interest at 2% throughout the installment period, namely the tax on the indexed value of $1 million in 1998 reduced by the applicable credit amount. Adjusted Gross Estate The gross estate generally refers to all property in which the decedent had an interest; for the purposes of it will also include gifts made within 3 years of death. The adjusted gross estate means the value of the gross estate reduced by allowable deductions. Going Rate Refers to 45% of the then current regular tax underpayment rate. The regular tax underpayment rate is the rate of interest charged by the IRS on balances owed to the agency. For individuals and small corporations, this is the short-term applicable federal rate (AFR) plus three percentage points, and changes quarterly. Under the installment option, the Going Rate is the rate that applies to taxable value exceeding the 2% Portion. Nominal Installment Cost This represents the total estimated amount that would be paid under the election, comprised of the principal amount of estate tax that is deferred and paid in installments plus the total interest paid over the entire course of the deferral and installment period. PV Total Estate Tax Cost For a given focus year, PV Total Estate Tax Cost represents the focus year value of the Total Estate Tax Cost, which incorporates estate taxes that cannot be deferred plus the Nominal Installment Cost (a component of which is payments to be made in the future over the course of the deferral and installment period). Pre-Tax Income Rate Needed to Meet s Refers to the average annual payment under the election divided by the business value divided by the Income Tax Rate plus the stated profit margin rate. Sale to a Defective Trust An effective estate planning tool that may be useful for holders of income-producing and appreciating assets, using the "grantor trust" rules to reduce the taxable estate. Irrevocable Life Trust (ILIT) A lifetime trust which, if properly drafted and administered, permits the life insurance proceeds to be received by the trust free of income tax and estate tax. In addition, the life insurance cash values will grow tax deferred during your lifetime. Page 16 of 16 February 02, 2010

17 John Hancock Life Company (U.S.A.) A LIFE INSURANCE POLICY ILLUSTRATION A Flexible Premium Adjustable Life Policy Valuable Information About Your Life Illustration Illustration Assumptions Valued Client Male Preferred NonSmoker Mrs. Valued Client Female Preferred NonSmoker Protection SUL-G Protection SUL-G is an insurance policy that covers two lives and pays a death benefit when the second person dies. You select the death benefit when we issue the policy. Any time after the first policy anniversary you can decrease the death benefit, provided you meet certain requirements. In some instances, we may be required to change the death benefit to meet the Internal Revenue Code regulations. There is no set premium with this policy. However, enough premium must be paid in order to continue coverage. Coverage will continue as long as the Net Cash Surrender Value or Net Policy Protection Value is greater than zero. You can pay premiums in any amount and at any time, subject to a minimum amount set by us and a maximum amount set by the Internal Revenue Code. When we receive your premiums, we deduct a premium charge and put the remaining amount into the policy. Each month we deduct a certain amount from the policy value for administrative and cost of insurance charges. We also add interest to your policy value each month. When the Younger insured reaches attained age 121, these deductions will stop. Provided coverage is in effect when the Younger insured reaches attained age 121, coverage will continue after age 121 and interest will be credited. No additional charges, other than those for any outstanding policy loans, will be deducted. Policy Protection Rider Your policy includes the Policy Protection Rider for a maximum benefit period up to the Younger life insured's attained age 121. As long as the Policy Protection Rider is in effect your policy cannot lapse even if the Net Cash Surrender Value falls to zero or below. The Policy Protection Rider will stay in effect during the benefit period as long as the reference value called the Net Policy Protection Value is greater than zero. The Net Policy Protection Value is a reference value and is only used to determine whether or not the Policy Protection Rider will stay in effect. The Protection SUL-G Form: 10PROSULG Presented By: Sample Agent Initial Death Benefit $6,000,000 Initial Planned Premium: $67, / Billing Mode: Annual Death Benefit Option 1; Cash Value Accumulation Test State: Michigan Based on Current Charges and an Initial Current Rate of 4.75% policyowner cannot access the reference value. The Policy Protection Rider is a flexible death benefit guarantee. Through your premium payments it can provide guaranteed coverage for any duration up to the maximum benefit period. But like your policy, the Policy Protection Rider is directly affected by the timing and amounts of premiums paid. To ensure that you have the Policy Protection Rider in effect for the period of time that you desire, it is important that premium payments are paid when they are due, otherwise your policy may lapse. As long as the Policy Protection Rider has not lapsed, you can restore the death benefit guarantee at any time by paying enough premium, as illustrated, to satisfy, or "catch up" to, the cumulative premium requirement for the guaranteed period you want. It is important to remember that the longer you wait to restore this guarantee, the more costly it becomes to "catch up". Premiums are due as of the premium due date indicated on your notice. However, in order to help maintain the desired death benefit guarantee, we provide a provision for the late receipt of premium payments. This feature provides you with greater death benefit guarantee protection in the event of late premium payments. In determining whether adequate Policy Protection Value is maintained to support the death benefit guarantee, we will apply late premiums retroactive to the beginning of the policy month in which they are received. Death benefit option changes, loans, withdrawals, rider termination or change, and/or face amount decreases will also affect the Policy Protection Rider. If a policy loan is outstanding, the Policy Protection Rider will not prevent your policy from lapsing if the Net Policy Value falls to zero. Net Death Benefit The life insurance provided in this illustration is payable upon the death of the surviving insured and reflects Initial Death Benefit of $6,000,000 (Option 1). The net death benefit reflects total loan plus any loan interest due. This is your Basic Illustration and is valid only if all illustration pages are included.
