Calculating efficiency over a period of time can identify opportunities to reorganize staffing, or add or remove employees based on the company's volume of business, and an individual employee's long-term productivity can factor into merit increases and bonuses.
While trusts avoid probate, they don't avoid taxes. A transfer from a revocable trust will be taxed the same way as a transfer made through a will. Someone who inherits money from a revocable trust receives it tax-free, but the estate might have to pay estate tax on everything that it contains before distributing it.
Inheritance tax is a tax that is imposed on the transfer of property after the owner's death. Under the inheritance tax system, the beneficiary of the property must pay the tax. As with a state personal income tax system, the inheritance tax will be determined by the flat rate method or graduated rate method.
