According to the "Complete Form 709 Fundamentals Course 2026," a donor makes a gift of a closely held business interest valued at $1,200,000. The donor plans to use their lifetime exemption to cover this gift. If the donor also made a $20,000 gift to their child earlier in the year that was covered by the annual exclusion, how should this $1,200,000 gift be reported on Form 709 for the current year, assuming no prior taxable gifts?
Report $1,200,000 as a taxable gift, with a calculation of tax due, which will then be offset by the unified credit.
Report $1,200,000 as a taxable gift, and indicate that it is fully covered by the annual exclusion.
Report $1,200,000 as a taxable gift, and the unified credit will reduce the tax liability to zero.
Report $1,180,000 as a taxable gift, and the unified credit will reduce the tax liability to zero.

asks how it *should be reported*. The *gift itself* is $1,200,000. The taxable gift for the year will be $1,180,000 ($1,200,000 gift - $20,000 annual exclusion). This $1,180,000 will then be added to any prior taxable gifts (which are zero in this case) to determine the tentative tax base. The unified credit is then applied to reduce the tax liability to zero. Option A is incorrect because it doesn't account for the prior annual exclusion. Option B is incorrect because it directly reports the net amount as the *gift*, when the gift's value is $1,200,000. Option D is incorrect as it misapplies the annual exclusion to the entire gift amount. Question: In the "Complete Form 709 Fundamentals Course 2026," what is the primary distinction between a "completed gift" and a "terminable interest" for Form 709 reporting purposes?
A completed gift requires the filing of Form 709, while a terminable interest does not.
A completed gift has been irrevocably transferred to the donee, while a terminable interest is one that will cease to exist upon the occurrence of a specified event.
A completed gift is a present interest, while a terminable interest is a future interest.
A completed gift is always taxable, whereas a terminable interest is never taxable.
