Grantor Trust Answer Book, 2015 (U.S.)

Author: Steven G. Siegel, J.D., LL.M (Taxation)

A grantor trust is a trust in which the settlor retains control over the trust property or its income to such an extent that the settlor is taxed on the trust's income.

The use of grantor trust arrangements has become an important estate planning tool. Owners of grantor trusts may be shareholders of S corporations. A number of desirable and sophisticated estate planning arrangements involve grantor trust status as the starting point. These include grantor retained annuity trusts (GRATs), grantor retained unitrusts (GRUTs), personal residence trusts (PRTs), qualified personal residence trusts (QPRTs) and intentionally defective grantor trusts (IDGTs).

The Grantor Trust Answer Book will address the following:

  • The grantor trust rules can be found in Code Sections 671 through 679. Each of these Sections describes a particular set of rules and circumstances that will cause a trust to be treated as a grantor trust. Each of these Code Sections is discussed in a separate Chapter addressing its rules and requirements.
  • Some of the interests retained by a grantor that make a trust a grantor trust also cause inclusion of the trust property in the grantor’s estate. Other interests do not. These distinctions are discussed throughout the publication.
  • Separate chapters address the estate planning uses of all types of grantor trusts (GRATs and GRUTs, PRTs and QPRTs, IDGTs).
  • Grantor trust issues are involved in the design of certain charitable trusts, notably charitable lead trusts and these are discussed in detail.
  • Coverage of foreign grantor trusts which is increasingly a topic of planning interest and government concern is included as well.
  • The fact that grantor trusts are subject to special income tax filing and reporting rules is discussed.
  • The role grantor trusts may have in planning for life insurance ownership, like kind exchanges and involuntary conversions are also among the issues addressed.
Chapter 1 Overview of Grantor Trusts: Principles and Taxation
Chapter 2 Code Section 671 — Trust Income, Deductions and Credits Attributable to Grantors and Others as Substantial Owners
Chapter 3 Code Section 672 — Grantor Trust Definitions and Rules

Business Succession Planning Answer Book – 2015 (U.S.)

Author: Ann Burns

Explores the issues that arise when the current owners of a family business wish to retire or otherwise transfer ownership of the business. These issues include ensuring that the owners have enough money to retire on, providing for what will happen to the business – whether there will there be a transfer of ownership or whether the business will dissolve, providing for who will take over the management of the business and how ownership will be transferred. Discussing and resolving these issues within the family can also be complicated and contentious, depending on the family dynamics. Essentially, business succession can be broken down into three main categories:  management, ownership and taxes. This publication discusses the distinction between management and ownership, exploring the possibility of transferring the responsibility for managing the business to one child while transferring equal shares of business ownership to all children. Business succession planning also looks at the minimization of taxes upon death. This may involve asset transfer tax strategies, for example freezing the value of the business while transferring the ownership. This publication explains how to accomplish these goals.

Chapter 1         Introduction to Business Succession Planning
Chapter 2         The Advisor's Role in Business Succession Planning
Chapter 3         Non-Tax Aspects of Family Business Succession
Chapter 4         Common Goals of Business Owners
Chapter 5         Key Features of Buy-Sell Agreements for the Business Owner
Chapter 6         Key Features of an Estate Plan for the Business Owner

BLUE BOOK 2013: Joint Committee on Taxation's General Explanation of Tax Legislation Enacted in the 112th Congress

 Authors: Lois Ruffner Plank, Donald Morris, Bryan R. Plank and Christie Plank Ciraulo

Provides a detailed explanation of the tax-related provisions contained in over 40 pieces of legislation enacted in the 112th Congress during 2011 and 2012.

The Blue Book provides the legislative history for each Act, a provision-by-provision description of the prior law and new law, the reasons for the law change if the provision was reported out of committee before enactment, and the effective date of each law change. Descriptions prepared by the Joint Committee on Taxation were included in the absence of other committee reports or when the Joint Committee issued a contemporaneous technical explanation of the bill. An Appendix shows the estimated budget effects of the tax legislation enacted in the 112th Congress for fiscal years 2010 – 2012.

The Blue Book's explanations serve as a useful guide in understanding the intent and meaning of the new tax laws and, along with committee and conference reports, is considered substantial authority for the tax treatment of an item for purposes of avoiding the Code Sec. 6662 accuracy-related penalty on substantial understatements of income tax (Reg. §1.6662-4(d)(3)(iii)).
