Valuation discounts are available in an estate plan
Article Abstract:
Valuation discounts can be availed of when determining the value of a real property. The types of discounts available include minority discount, tiered discounts, lack-of-marketability discount, blockage or market absorption discount and key-man discount. Discounts are also available in deadlock, liquidation, multiple classes of stock and situations where there are restrictions resulting from securities laws. In determining if valuation discounts are available, tax accounting practitioners would do well to hire qualified appraisers because they are highly influential in tax court decisions. Appraisal usually initially requires the evaluation of the underlying assets of the entity before a separate evaluation of the interest in the entity to be transferred.
