    David Bass died on November 1, 2012, bequeathing his entire $6,000,000 estate to his brother, Jason. The alternate valuation date was validly elected by the executor of David’s estate. David’s estate included 5,000 shares of listed stock for which David’s basis was $515,000. This stock was distributed to Jason 9 months after David’s death. Fair market values of this stock were

    At the date of David’s death $600,000

    6 months after David’s death 670,000

    9 months after David’s death 690,000

    Jason’s basis for this stock is

    $515,000

    $600,000

    $670,000

    $690,000

    C is right – The basis of inherited property is normally its fair value at the date of the previous owner’s death. However, the executor to the estate has the right to choose an alternative date for valuation purposes. That is the date of conveyance or six months after death, whichever comes first. Because Ron received these securities prior to the six-month date, the value of $14,000 when received is used. For income tax purposes, the gain is $3,000 ($17,000 sales price less $14,000 tax basis).

    @wannabe–there isn't a whole lot about gift/estate tax if I remember correctly. You'll probably know it well after we quiz a few. C is correct! 🙂
