part three - future growth of your estate: the size of your estate can increase significantly, based on three factors: annual increases by you from earnings (or other sources), annual increases over a longer period of years, and an earnings growth rate that causes your investments and other assets to increase in value even if you do not add "new" savings.

 

 

 

part four - estate tax calculation: based on your current estate value and your expected future growth, your estate would be liable for federal estate taxes as follows. note: this calculation ignores the state death tax credit, because this credit (available on your federal estate tax return) is offset in most states by a state estate tax that is equal to the credit given on the federal return. thus, the federal tax shown below is equal to the combined federal and state estate taxes that are applicable in most states.
