What is the maximum amount of a monetary gift for 2009?
You can give as much as your heart desires. It's your money, you can do with it what you want. (Don't send it to Cuba, Iran, or North Korea.) If you are wondering what the gift tax exclusion for 2009 is, it is $133,000 to a non-resident alien spouse and $13,000 to anyone else who is not a spouse. The maximum amount that a married couple can gift to each individual is $26,000 (2 x $13,000.) The entire gift to a charity or political organization is exempt. Payments of tuition (not room and board) and medical expenses are completely exempt if made directly to an educational institution or medical services provider. Payments to a US Citizen or resident alien spouse are also completely exempt.

How is a tax-exempt bond different from a bond sold by a company?
A tax exempt bond is issued by a municipality. The tax exempt status is not a property of the bond itself but is a result of tax legislation regarding municipal bond interest as being tax exempt. The interest rates on the bonds (the amount paid to the bond holder) are usually lower than on corporate bonds but because of the tax exempt status the lower rate may or may not result in a higher after tax yield depending on the rates of the two bonds and the tax bracket of the bond holder.
