Married couples are able to increase the use of his/her federal exemptions from the estate tax by the use of an AB Trust as a part of their estate plan. This system organized under the couples’ Revocable Living Trusts or Last Will and Testaments. The “A Trust” is usually referred to as the Marital Deduction, QTIP, or Marital Trusts. The “B Trust” is usually referred to as the “Family Trust”, “Credit Shelter Trust”, or “Bypass Trust”.

Ways the AB Trust Maximizes Both Spouses Tax Exemptions:

1.The couple has the correct AB Trust Language included in their Revocable Living Trust or the Last Will and testament.

•Should be done with a qualified estate-planning attorney.

2.The couples assets are divide so each spouse has just about the same value of assets in their Revocable Living Trust or in their individual name.

•This is an essential step and need to be done so that the AB Trust system can work. Often, couples leave his/her assets in joint account, which completely cancels the use of the AB Trust system because the joint assets will pass to the surviving spouse outright, instead of by way of the deceased spouse’s Living Trust (Revocable), or Last Will.

3.The first $ 3,500,000 of the surviving spouse’s assets will be funded into the B Trust, if the first spouse died in 2009.

•This successfully utilizes the first spouses $ 3,500,000 federal exemption that comes from taxes that were available for deaths happening in 2009. The B Trust can be used for the benefit the descendants, the surviving spouse or other beneficiaries and can be reasonably flexible.

4.The excess is funded into the A trust if the spouse who is deceased assets exceed $ 3, 500,000.

•This will postpone the payment of estate taxes on amounts of the deceased spouse exemption of $ 3, 500,000, pending the surviving spouse’s death. The A Trust is less flexible, because of this estate tax deferment and can only be utilized for the advantage of the surviving spouse. The surviving spouse is also required to accept all of the incomes from the A trust.

5.Later, as a result of the surviving spouse dying, the surviving spouse will keep their own estate tax exemption, if a federal estate tax is in effect.

•If the exemption sum is $ 3,500,000 at the time the surviving spouse dies, then the first $3,500,000 that comes from the surviving spouse’s detached assets will go to the final beneficiaries, tax-free. Anything above $ 3,500,000 will experience tax.

If CR 4 RA 6 and RS 10 find AB.?

The question, as it appears cannot be answered because there is no information as to what or where AB is. It would seem this is because the questioner did not think it relevant to mention that ABC and RSC are similar triangles. If they are not, then from the information that is given, the question remains unanswerable. However, if they are similar, then AB = 25.
