2 1 YOU VE BUILT A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS You worked hard to build your business. You faced innumerable obstacles and anxieties along the way. You long ago lost count of all of those sleepless nights. You persevered and it paid off. You now look with pride at your business as you work side by side with your family. Because you have worked so hard and put so much time and effort into your business, you want it to continue, but you realize that there is another challenge that is perhaps as great as any you faced in establishing and growing the business. That challenge is how to pass it to the next generation. The liquidity and potential tax issues that you must resolve are difficult enough, but your situation is even more complicated because some of your children are directly involved in the business and others are not. You wish to treat all of your children equally, or at least fairly, but how can you do that if the business makes up the greatest portion of your estate?
3 2 THE CHALLENGE EQUALIZING THE INHERITANCE OF THE HEIRS In many family owned businesses, the commitment and contributions the children make is not equal. Sometimes this is because the older siblings come into the business earlier and carve out their place. They are often resentful of younger siblings who enter the business later expecting to be treated equally when they haven t earned their stripes. Sometimes the resentment comes from children who went away and worked in different careers but still expect to receive an equal share of the business. As a parent, you want to do the right thing, and often that means dividing what you have equally among your children. That might seem fair, but for children who have been working in the business often for less than attractive compensation the equal division of the business isn t fair. Unfortunately, it is not unusual for issues like this to break families apart. A COMMON FAMILY BUSINESS SITUATION Let s look at a common situation. Bob is the owner of a successful business. He is married and has two children. While his wife, Susan, has been instrumental in the success of the business, she does not want to be dependent on it as her primary source of income after Bob s death. Their older son, George, shares his father s love for the business, but the younger son, Frederick, does not. Frederick, with his parent s blessings, has chosen another career path. Bob and Susan s goals are to leave Susan financially secure, leave the business to George and make the inheritances of the two sons equal. Eventually, the issues will be the same regardless of the order of the spouses deaths. If we assume Bob is the first to die, most likely he will want Susan to have the use of all of their assets. That may seem like a good plan, but that will leave Susan with a business that she does not want and George would not own a business that he does want.
4 3 The issue of equalization comes to the forefront at Susan s death. Like Bob, Susan wants to treat the two children equally and yet make sure that George receives the business that he loves. Unfortunately, if Susan leaves the business to George, there will not be sufficient assets to equalize Frederick s inheritance. If she divides the estate equally between them, George will have a partner who is not interested in the business and who will likely be a detriment to its continued success. To complicate the matter further, once the estate passes to children and not to a spouse, it may be subject to estate tax. In addition to the estate tax, there are settlement costs. So the question becomes, from which share will the expenses be paid? If these expenses were paid from the business, there likely would be no business. If paid from non-business assets, Frederick would end up with little or no portion of the estate. And dividing the burden equally between the two of them which is the likely event could cause the cessation of the business and the liquidation of the securities and the home. A SOLUTION The solution may lie in the wise use of life insurance and deciding when the family wants to equalize the inheritance. In the above situation, the desire is to pass the business to George at the death of his father. To address this objective, George could enter into a buy-sell agreement with his father funded with enough life insurance to enable him to purchase the business from his father s estate. At Bob s death, George would use the life insurance proceeds to purchase the business from Bob s estate. George would then own the business and the estate would have cash to help equalize the inheritance to Frederick. If there is a concern that this will not leave Susan with enough assets, additional life insurance can be acquired to provide for Susan. Each family may have a preference of when to equalize inheritances. In some cases, the desire is to have the children inherit after the deaths of both parents. In such a case, a son could enter into a buy-sell agreement with his parents, funded with enough life insurance to enable him to purchase the business at the death of the last parent to die. The assets remaining could then be divided equally among the children.
5 4 HOW DO YOU KNOW IF ESTATE EQUALIZATION IS RIGHT FOR YOU? Estate planning concepts are never one-size-fits-all. Each situation requires a unique solution. If you are a business owner, the solution presented in this brochure might be appropriate for you if the answer to the following questions is yes : 4Does your business account for more than half of your net worth? 4Would you like your business to remain in the family, managed by family members? 4Are family members currently active in the business? 4Do you have other family members who are not involved in the business? And do you want them to share in your estate? 4Do the active family members have the management experience necessary to succeed? 4Is it your intent to have your heirs inherit equal shares of your estate? 4Would you like another source of funds, other than the business, to provide for your spouse or heirs who are not active in the business? CONCLUSION The interplay of family, financial, and business concerns in estate and business planning can seem daunting, but it need not be. Equalization, as described, is quite simple conceptually, but there are issues that require assistance of a team of financial professionals that includes the insurance professional, an attorney, and a CPA. A talented and skillful team of professionals can help address and resolve in an efficient and satisfactory manner issues that may seem difficult at first.
