What would gift tax be on 75000.00?
You would take off the annual exemption of 15,000 (in 2012) and calculate the tax on the remaining $60,000, which could be as much as 50 percent. However, the gift giver can apply part of their lifetime gift tax exemption and not pay any tax.

The lifetime exemption was eliminated in 1997. There is currently a new exemption that allows you to exempt up to $250,000 in capital gains ($500,000 if married filing jointly) if certain conditions are met and can be used as often as every two years.
What is the tax ramification on a 122000 gift of equity?
Under US tax law, your lifetime federal gift tax exemption would be depleted by the amount of the gift in excess of the annual limit to one person. If the annual limit is, say, $12,000, and you give the equity to an individual, you would lose 110,000 from your $1.2 million-dollar gift tax exemption (or whatever it is when you die and your estate is distributed to non-charitable beneficiaries), not including gifts to a surviving spouse (which are estate tax-free). You could reduce the loss of exemption by giving the equity to more than one person, or spreading it over multiple years.
What is the current inheritance tax rate?
For 2011, the federal estate tax exemption will be $5 million and the estate tax rate for estates valued over this amount will be 35%. The estate tax has also become unified with federal gift and generation-skipping transfer taxes such that in 2011 the lifetime gift tax exemption and generation-skipping transfer tax exemption will be $5 million each and the tax rate for both of these taxes will also be 35%. There is NO federal level inheritance tax.
What is the tax rate on a gift tax?
The general rule is: 45%, but there is much more. The U.S. Federal tax rates for gifts are on the same tax rate schedule as the estate tax. If the gift is a "present interest" gift (they can use it or benefit from it today) then each person giving the gift has, in 2009, a $13,000 exclusion from tax. Above that each person has a $1,000,000 lifetime exemption from gift tax but is required to file a gift tax return to keep track of that lifetime exemption. Gifts above that are currently being taxed at 45%. So if you put $1,500,000 in a trust for your friends and relatives (not your spouse) and they have no rights to the trust for awhile and you have never gifted over the annual exclusion before, the first $1,000,000 is not taxed and the $500,000 is taxed at 45%. The person giving the gift pays the tax. As with all tax law there are other circumstances that can make the general rule different than stated above. For instance, you can force the recipient to pay the tax.

If you are given money from your Mom as a gift is there a form to fill out to avoid paying taxes on it to the Federal government?
Filling out a form will not prevent you from paying taxes. The US has a gift tax that is paid by the giver. However, there is also a gift tax annual exclusion and a gift tax lifetime exemption. In 2009, the gift annual tax exclusion is $13,000. If the total gift for 2008 exceeds that amount, your mom will need to file IRS form 709 to report the gift. Even if the gift was over $13,000, this does not mean that she will have to pay a tax. Everyone has a $1 million lifetime gift tax exemption. So once the $13,000 exclusion is exceeded, the giver starts eating into the million dollar exemption, which also reduces the amount that can be passes estate tax free at death. No gift tax is paid until the million dollar lifetime exclusion is used up. If the gift is something other then cash, but you estimate that you that the value was less then $13,000, you may still want to file form 709 because filing the form starts a statute of limitations for which the IRS can contest the value of the gift. For example, if your mom gives you a gift you reasonable believe is a piece of art worth $10,000 (and may have appraisal done) but it turns out the value is $100,000 at the time of the gift, unless you filed form 709, the IRS can at any time attack the value of the gift. If form 709 is filed, the IRS may only attach the value until the statute of limitations expires. Of course, talk to your tax advisor regarding your personal circumstances.
