President Biden has proposed the elimination of the “step up in basis,” while keeping the 40% (or higher) estate tax on the full value of a family business owner’s assets.
That means that each person who inherits a business will pay taxes on the same appreciation again, each time the business changes hands. And he wants to raise the capital gains tax rate to 39.6 %. or 43.4%. THIS COULD RESULT IN A 81% ON A BUSINESS!
Watch this video and learn how that happens.
